   Sift the flour and salt together and fold into the egg mixture.

   Bake about 30 minutes.

5. 5

   If the cake springs back, it is done.

16. 16

    Cut out the center (in a heart shape if you are using heart-shaped pans) of the other layer, leaving a 3-inch border.

    Put aside the center piece you cut out.

18. 18

    Place the layer with the cut-out center on top of the other and press down to make the layers stick together.
