Tasha Tudor's Chocolate Cake Tasha Tudor’s Chocolate Cake 3 squares Baker’s unsweetened baking chocolate 1 cup plus 4 tablespoons sugar 2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk 6 tablespoons butter, room temperature 2 eggs, separated, at room temperature 1 1/2 cups cake flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. If desired, line the pans with greased and floured waxed paper. Separate the eggs. Lightly beat the yolks and set them aside. Beat the whites until stiff peaks form. Set the whites aside. Combine in the top of a double boiler the baking chocolate, 4 tablespoons of sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk. Stir together over hot water until chocolate is completely melted. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter. Add the rest of the sugar, the beaten egg yolks, and the melted chocolate mixture. Stir well. Sift together the dry ingredients and add them to the batter, alternating with the rest of the milk. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites and the vanilla. Pour the batter into the prepared pans. Bake for 20 minutes or until the layers begin to pull away from the sides of the pans. Check for doneness with a cake tester. Take care not to over bake so the layers do not become dry. Remove pans from the oven and place on racks to cool for 10 minutes. Remove the layers from the pans (peel off the waxed paper if you used it) and finish cooling completely on the racks. Frost when the layers are completely cool. (Makes 1 double layer cake or 24 cupcakes.) Cocoa Frosting: 2 cups confectioner’s sugar 4 tablespoons cocoa 4 tablespoons butter, melted 4 tablespoons strong, hot coffee 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Sift the powdered sugar and cocoa into a medium-size mixing bowl. Add the melted butter and enough coffee to make a good spreading consistency. Beat well with a wire whisk or electric mixer. Stir in the vanilla. Spread frosting on cooled cake layers. (Yields 2 cups – enough to frost an 8- or 9-inch double layer cake or 24 cupcakes.) Enjoy! --Never Enough Thyme http://www.lanascooking.com Recipe from The Tasha Tudor Cookbook: Recipes and Reminiscences from Corgi Cottage .

  • A 1718 Cookbook Contains a Dessert Recipe Similar to the Sachertorte
    A 1718 Cookbook Contains A Dessert Recipe Similar To The SacherTorte Sacher Torte Day is observed annually on December 5. Sacher Torte, also known as Sachertorte, is a unique type of chocolate cake (or torte) that was invented by Austrian Franz Sacher in 1832. Sacher Torte is one of Vienna’s most famous culinary specialties. Franz Sacher was only an apprentice when Prince Wenzel Von Metternich ordered a special dessert from the kitchen for his guests. With the chef ill, Sacher stepped in for his superior and created what is known world wide as the Sacher Torte. His son, Eduard, went on to perfect this decadent dessert. The Sacher Torte is created with apricot jam between layers of rich, chocolate sponge cake and topped with a layer of chocolate icing. The original recipe is a secret protected today and served exclusively by the Sacher Hotels in Vienna and Salzburg. A torte (from Italian torta) is a rich, usually multi-layered, cake that is filled with whipped cream, butter creams,mousses, jams, or fruits. When comparing tortes and cakes, you will notice that the cake is lighter than the torte. Cakes are made with cake flour alone. Tortes are commonly baked in a spring form pan. The most well-known of the typical tortes include the Austrian Sacher torte. Sacher Torte, a chocolate cake filled with apricot jam and covered with chocolate icing. It was created in Vienna in 1832 by a 16 year old apprentice baker named Franz Sacher for Prince Metternich. Recipes similar to that of the Sacher torte appeared as early as the eighteenth century, one instance being in the 1718 cookbook of Conrad Hagger.

    Divina Cucina's SWEETS FROM ITALY Judy Witts Francini divinacucina.com divina cucina about me I began my culinary career as a pastry chef at the Stanford Court Hotel in San Francisco. To me, dessert being the last thing you eat at dinner, has to be fabulous or the meal is ruined. I have chosen some of my favorite and simple recipes to end a meal. With Italian recipes, ingredients may vary from where you live, so I always suggest making the recipe once before you serve it for a party. I used grams on some of the recipes where I think it matters. Get a scale! It is worth it for pastry. We use "00" flour which is now available in the USA. Ground almond flour is also more easily available. The ricciarelli are a classic cookie from Siena. The Brutti ma Buoni, vary from town to town. I love the ones made in Prato using walnuts, feel free to use them. Panforte is another dessert from Siena, instead of the richer version with candied fruits, i prefer the simple fig and walnut version. This is perfect served in thin slices with cheese. Salami Dolce is a almost lost recipe, rarely found anymore, except in someone's home. Every Italian mamma has her version of Torta di Mele, this is my version, using tricks from several mamma's i have met. The final dessert is a special chocolate cake from the Island of Capri off the coast of Naples and is also Gluten-free, as are the Ricciarelli and the Fig and Walnut Panforte.
