Ann's notes: This is a delicious, though unusual color (burnt orange) appetizer. I used the not-oil-packed tomatoes and soaked them in hot water first. I then added 1 T. olive oil instead of the 1 T. reserved tomato-oil. I also cut these into 28 pieces and they were just right for pick-up appetizers. I found the baking time specified to be too short. Next time, I would increase the temperature to 375 for the filled cake to get it done in 20-25 minutes.
