Dulce De Leche Torte (

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400u00b0F with rack in middle. Generously brush a large baking sheet with vegetable oil.

2. 2

   Stir together yolks, milk, and salt.

3. 3

   Put flour in a large bowl and make a well in center. Add yolk mixture to well and gently stir with a fork, gradually pulling in flour closest to egg mixture to make a paste. Knead in all of remaining flour with your hands to form a dough (dough will be very firm).

4. 4

   Transfer dough to a work surface and knead, lightly dusting with additional flour as necessary, until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Flatten dough into a disk, then quarter and form each quarter into a ball.

6. 6

   Keeping remaining dough covered with a kitchen towel (not terry cloth), firmly roll out 1 piece on a clean surface into a 12-inch round, lifting and turning dough as necessary. (Dough will be slightly sticky but will lift up easily; round will be very thin with uneven edges.)

7. 7

   Transfer to baking sheet and bake until edge is golden and curls up, about 5 minutes. Carefully turn over and bake until cooked through and both sides are golden in some spots (lift to check), 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a rack to cool.

8. 8

   Repeat with remaining dough. (Pastry will overlap on racks.)

9. 9

   Stir together
