Mozart Cake

Mon, 05 Aug 2002 19:38:31 -0400

This is one version of a famous cake that originated in Austria and is modelled after the Mozartkugeln chocolate marzipan truffles. This is an elegant, elaborate cake that takes lots of time and some degree of skill to prepare, but is well worth the extra effort.Translated & adapted from "Kochen & Geniessen" magazine, directly from the German. If you are serving this to adults and want even more Mozartkugeln flavor -lightly brush the cooled cake layers with some Mozart Liqueur before stacking. In Germany, marzipan is often sold unsweetened in the baking aisle, in which case, you will need to add powdered sugar to it (which will absorb into the marzipan as you knead it). In the US, marzipan is often available already sweetened, in which case you can omit the powdered sugar, or add some to taste. -- posted by HeatherFeather

These are so delicious. A combination of chocolate and apricot on a shortbread base. Easy to make because it starts with a cake mix, but no one can tell. This was a favorite of my favorite cousin. -- posted by mandabears

Ive been so cold lately and was searching for something minty and chocolatey. This one from a local news show warms you from the inside out and rivals a hot chocolate that I once had in Austria. Yummy! Makes 2 large portions or 4 normal sized ones. -- posted by LAURIE

Mon, 23 Apr 2007 21:11:53 -0400

Our first day in Salzburg and we were famished. This was one of the desserts we ordered at a Gasthaus near our hotel. Delicious. Much like the molten cakes in fashion. This version was picked up at Global Gourmet. -- posted by evelyn/athens

My Secret Brandy Truffles

Sat, 14 Jul 2007 05:34:25 -0400

Okay so they're not a secret anymore. I hesitated to publish this recipe, but it's just too good not to share. If you don't like Brandy, I suppose dark rum, Grand Marnier, or Bourbon would be good, too. -- posted by KissKiss

Sausage of Chocolate

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 02:52:59 -0500

As good as the title is gross. My mum has made this for Christmas as long as i can remember and longer. I did not really like it as a kid but you kind of really grow into it. You may use whatever nuts or nut mixture you want, this year i used almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts and coconut which turned out great and looks very festive. -- posted by Iceland

Viennese Chocolate Fingers

Thu, 20 Dec 2007 15:55:21 -0500

The last of the 2007 holiday trays are done and I am already thinking about next year. (Our trays have favorites but always include a few new recipes.) Planned to make these but never had a chance. Posting this so I don't lose it in the next 49 weeks before holiday begins again. This recipe comes from "1000 Chocolate Recipes from Around the World" an encyclopedic volume which should be mandatory reading for us chocoholics. -- posted by justcallmetoni

Easy Breezy Chocolate Mousse

Sun, 12 Apr 2009 18:55:44 -0400

This recipe hails from Austria, the use of chocolate with whipping cream and cinnamon is typically Austrian. Even though there is no gelatine used, it firms up nicely and has a creamy, silky texture. 2 hours of cooling is included in the cooking time. -- posted by gemini08

Thu, 06 Aug 2009 12:22:36 -0400

This is a recipe my day care mother used to bake all the time. It is easy to make, you can make a large amount and they keep quite a while if you keep them in a box, otherwise they will finish quickly. -- posted by Iceland

Viennese Chocolate Pepper Cookies

Sat, 12 Dec 2009 14:41:15 -0500

Put these thin little chocolate cookies on your holiday platter & let tasters be surprised, very surprised. The black pepper and allspice gives unexpected snap. Found in The Washington Post, adapted from "The Ultimate Chocolate Cookie Book," by Bruce Weinstein. Make the dough & chill - this allows you to bake when you want to, as many as you want at a time. -- posted by Buster's friend

Miniature Austrian Sachertorte

Thu, 04 Feb 2010 03:21:16 -0500

Sachertorte, one of Austria's most famous desserts, was created in the 1830s by baker Franz Sacher. Here is an updated version of the classic recipe, made into individual servings using a muffin tin. The moist, light cake is topped with a glistening chocolate icing and served with a dollop of warm Cointreau spiked apricot jam. A lovely special occasion dessert! Adapted from "The Opera Lover's Cookbook". -- posted by BecR
