Combine sugar, brown sugar, and butter or margarine in
large mixer bowl on medium speed. Add egg and vanilla;

salt; add alternately with buttermilk or sour milk to
creamed mixture. Pour batter by level 1/2 cupfuls onto
lightly greased cookies sheet (2 cookies per sheet).
With spatula, spread evenly into 6-inch circles, 3 inches
apart. Bake at 375 for 7 to 8 minutes, or until lightly
browned. Remove from cookie sheet, cool completely on wire
rack. Chill.

Prepare Hershey Bar Cream Filling. Place one cookie on
serving plate; spread with 1/2 cup cream filling. Repeat
layering with remaining cookies and filling, ending with a
cookie. Spoon Glaze over top of torte. Refrigerate.
8 to 10 servings.
Cream Filling: Sprinkle 1 tsp. unflavored gelatine onto 5
Tbsp. water in saucepan; let stand a few minutes to soften.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until gelatine
is dissolved. Remove from heat; add 1-1/2 eight-ounce milk
chocolate bars, broken into pieces (reserve remaining half
for glaze). Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
(If necessary, melt over low heat.) Cool to lukewarm, about
10 minutes. Whip 1 cup heavy or whipping cream until
stiff; gradually add whipped cream to chocolate mixture,
blending carefully. Chill about 1 hour or until filling
begins to set.

Glaze: Melt 1/2 milk chocolate bar (reserved from filling)
with 1 Tbsp. water in top of double boiler over warm water,
stir to blend well. Add teaspoonfuls of water as needed
until glaze is of spreading consistency.
