Somehow difficult to photograph red total, even after several processing steps in the photo editing program, the colors are not exactly like on the cake, the face of Matryoshkas example is skin color and the pink cheeks ...
Under the FondantĂĽberzug my design the way Cake is again a Sacher Torte Grandma Buchholtz (as in many of my Wedding cakes because ...), which can be prepared well and at least to roll out a week. Perfect to minimize pre-Christmas stress!
The recipe for the Sacher Torte is the grandmother of Uschi Schroeder. Uschi is one of the co-leaders in the pie talk. Since this recipe is now available but not exclusively there, I write it to you here sometimes on a warm thanks to Uschi and her grandma Buchholtz!

the butter until creamy and then beat the sugar really nice white fluffy. Then stir in the cooled chocolate. Separate the eggs, stirring the yolks gradually into the butter-chocolate mixture and collect the proteins in a second bowl. In a separate bowl the flour, cocoa and baking powder seven, then beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt to a sleazy snow. Please do not stiff because the Sacher Torte is juicy with a greasy egg whites! Alternately pull
the flour mixture and the egg whites with fat mass, complete with the last remaining egg whites. Pour into a baking paper-lined with spring-form, thereby forming in the middle with the Teiglöffel a small hollow or alternatively wrap the pan after the Isoliermethode. In at 160 degrees preheated oven for 45 - 60 min. Bake the end make sure to stick out sample.
After cooling, cut the cake and fill with a mixture of jam and alcohol and outside once rich enough. If the cake surface is dry again, either coat it with chocolate glaze over them or ganache and covered with fondant. Then run through at least a week in the refrigerator or cold cellar.
I had baked for my Christmas cake that is 1.5 times the recipe in a 26 "springform pan, the cake was almost 7 inches high and had two fine cut times. Just after cutting the Christmas cake is now about 6 inches high. The remaining small bump of about 1 cm will crumble and I use for my Christmas dessert.
