Signs Look After Baby Falls

Sacher cakes.

Delightfully, Sacher!

Dolce famous, characteristic of the Austrian tradition, and perhaps the most famous chocolate cake in the world.

I made this cake for Christmas Day, with a silicone mold shaped like a star ... pandoro looks like a slice of it?

All around I ordered the Lychee (Chinese or cherries, which I love!) For decoration, not because I had some cherries, which usually use!

The small photo below however is that Michael has taken the Sacher I had prepared for him last Valentine's Day.

the way, you are going through the good parties? :)

ego, I received and made some beautiful gifts ... of sweet surprises ... delusions are minimized because the same elements always come and now I have a hard Pellacchia! : D

The recipe is so fast, already tested, does not require special expertise and performance is perfect! I give you two different procedures, the first if you have a food processor (or a global one, however, with the beaters), the second if you have not or have only electric whips.

The doses are taken, modified slightly, from the book "Sweets" Small beads of Demeter.

procedure with the robot

Melt in a pan in water bath chocolate chopped into pieces, and do the same with the butter. Meanwhile, whip for a long time in the robot 5 eggs with sugar. When they become a frothy cream and stable Add the sifted flour with the yeast, stirring constantly, incorporate it at all, about one third at a time, and add another, to end it. Finally add the melted butter very slowly to the wire. Do the same with chocolate, it should be, like butter, very cold.

Pour the mixture into a buttered mold, preferably a hinge (but not required). Bake in preheated oven at 180 ° C for 45 minutes. Turn out and cool on a wire rack.

procedure without the robot

Bring out the butter from the fridge. Chop the chocolate dark chocolate and melt in a water bath in a small saucepan. Work to cream the butter at room temperature, with half the sugar. Add the chocolate by spoonfuls, stirring constantly. Stir in mixing smepre, egg yolks, one at a time. Whip the egg whites until stiff, add to these the remaining sugar and then add one small part to the butter mixture, with the aid of a whip. Then with a wooden spoon, gently incorporate the rest of egg whites, alternating with spoonfuls of flour. In this case you can omit the yeast altogether.

Filling and frosting

Once the cake is cold, cut it in half. In a saucepan heat the apricot jam and filled the cake.

The sweet tooth can also add a layer of chocolate cream. I do not particularly like, but the 29 year old kid that I find myself as a boyfriend.

Close the cake and cover even outside with a thin veil of jam.

Prepare the glaze by dissolving the dark chocolate over low heat, making it cool a bit ', and off the heat, add a few flakes of butter will make it sparkle!

iced the cake with a spatula. Decorate with candied cherries, leave it like that or Make of it what you want, it will be beautiful all the same! :)

As you have seen you this cake is even harder to eat than done. The original recipe is secret and unattainable, but my Sacher is still delicious! E 'but not too sweet, chocolaty but not too much, and then scenic crazy! : D

Success assured ... Ah, of course, for lovers and would therefore not the dates but who does not like jam.

Good preparation for New Year! ^ ^
