"Tuesday's with Dorie" - Poppy Seed Torte


 "Poppy Seed Torte" ? 
The images you find of this recipe on the Internet are very deceiving..
The recipe we are using is in Dorie Greenspan's book entitled "Baking with Julia", and there are a couple of changes that I made. The first one being that I only used 1 cup of poppy seeds and we passed on the apricots, (even though in the end I realized how yummy the apricots would have made it ) we have tried them before and they are not a hit among our boys, so my torte is adorned with lemon flavored sugar and candy slices.
