For the dough:
6 cups flour * 1 cup oil * 1 cup melted margarine * 3 tbsp yogurt * 1 tsp baking powder * 1 tbsp vanilla extract
For the filling:
1 cup crumbled nuts
For the syrup:
3 cups sugar * 3 cups water * 1 tbsp lemon juice To garnish: 2 tbsp crumbled nuts
Prepare the syrup. Put the water and the sugar in a pan and bring to boil. When it starts to get thick, take from the fire, add the lemon juice and bring to boil again. Take from the fire and let it cool down. Meanwhile, prepare the dough. Sift the flour and open a hole on it. Place inside the oil, the melted margarine, the yogurt, the baking powder and the vanilla extract and knead well. Cover the dough with a wet cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. Separate portions of the dough in the amount of a nut and work each one with your hand or on a table, giving the shape and the size of a coffee cup plate. Place the nuts in the center and close each dough portion by joining the sides in the center. Place the cakes in a greased oven tray and bake on a 170º preheated oven. Take the cakes from the oven, cover them with the syrup and then sprinkle with the nuts. When the cakes absorbe the syrup, they are ready to be served.
