Name: Smörgåstårta Sandwich Cake
Prep time: 30 min
Total time: 1 h 30 min
Yield: 1 sandwich cake
Cuisine: Swedish
Ingredients: 1 loaf of dense bread (such as rye or sourdough); 1 cup mayonnaise; 1 cup Greek yogurt; 1 tbsp Dijon mustard; 1 tbsp lemon juice; 1 lb cooked chicken, shredded; 1 lb cooked ham, thinly sliced; 1 cucumber, thinly sliced; 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced; 4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced; Fresh dill, for garnish; Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

To begin, trim the crusts off the loaf of bread and slice it horizontally into three even layers. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth and creamy. This will be the delicious dressing for our sandwich cake.
Assemble the layers of the sandwich cake: Place one slice of bread on a serving platter and generously spread some of the dressing over the top. Add a layer of shredded chicken, followed by another slice of bread. Repeat the process with ham, cucumber, and bell pepper. Top with the final slice of bread.
Use the remaining dressing to generously cover the entire cake, ensuring it reaches the edges. This will help hold the layers together and provide a creamy finish to the dish.
Decorate the top of the Smörgåstårta with slices of hard-boiled eggs, creating a beautiful pattern. Feel free to get creative with the design, using the cucumber slices, bell pepper, and dill to add color and additional flavor.
Before serving, sprinkle some fresh dill over the top for a touch of herbal freshness. Season with salt and pepper to taste, enhancing the layers with an extra burst of flavor.
Place the completed Smörgåstårta in the refrigerator for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together and the cake to set.
