Ines Rosales Sweet Olive Oil Tortas.

My wife purchased this incredible "biscuits" made by hand in Spain since 1909. I've been hooked on the flavor combination of olive oil, sugar, sesame and anise ever since.

Look below for an incredible, moist cake inspired by these tortas.

Sweet Anise Cake

A dense, moist cake with hints of anise and sesame. Made with olive oil, it improves with age. You'll love it even more on day 2 and 3.
