My husband’s aunt gave us the recipe for this Reuben dish. The ingredients are the same as those in a Reuben sandwich. You’ll adore this dish if you like Reubens!

Really tasty and simple to bake. Thanks
i didn’t have some ingredients so i just used almonds and walnuts added raisins and seeds,i didn’t add vanilla extract (didn’t have any).the outcome was very good a bit bland i just put some PB on it
This cake is awe some. I reduced the sugar to 125 grams and i did substitute 400 grams of the dates with dried strawberries
I guess I’m within that category of “afew nuts” … I love nuts but found this recipe to be awful waste of good nuts..dry..waste of money..Having tryed this recipe I will not touch other similiar recipes!
I love the use of all kinds of nuts.
Great recipe. I’ve had to copy it for many people who could not believe how great it tasted.
Just what I was looking for! Only I intend to soak mine for a peroid of time in “good old J.D.” and give as gifts this coming Christmas.
