Raspberry Kuchen Torte

Line the bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 inch cake pan with the following pie cruse. Mix in pan and press to make the crust:

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. milk
1 1/2 tsp. sugar

Mix 1/2 cup sugar and 1 tsp. flour together. Sprinkle some of this mixture over the crust and alternate with layers of raspberries (about 1 1/2 quarts). Bake in 450 degree oven for 15 minutes. Beat 3 eggs, and add 2 Tbsp. sugar and 3/4 to 1 cup Half & Half. Pour over berry mixture and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

You can use the egg whites to make a meringue for the topping or you can sprinkle with coconut. I prefer to just mix up a strudel topping.
