Grab your basket and let's go shop.


We will need


200g of dark chocolate
4 eggs
180g flour
180g sugar
180g butter
12g of baking powder

Chocolate icing:
60g of butter
100g dark chocolate
1 spoonful of cream

Steps:
Making your home made Sacher can as be easy, here's how I made it.
Start by mixing the egg yellows with sugar.
The chocolate + butter melted in (bain-marie)

according to wikipedia The bain-marie consists of a large container filled with a working liquid (usually water) and another, smaller container filled with the substance to be heated. The smaller container is partially immersed in the larger container, and the larger container is heated. The temperature of the working liquid cannot normally exceed the boiling point of that liquid at the ambient atmospheric pressure, and so the temperature of the inner container can be brought to a known limit and held there by bringing the outer working liquid to a boil. Convection in the working liquid of the outer container also improves the uniformity of heating in the inner container.
the melted butter and chocolate is added to the yellow sugar mixture. Dissolve baking powder with a small amount of milk and add to the mixture, after which you add the flour and mix. Finally add whisked egg whites.
Cooked in the oven for 45 minutes at 200°c


When the sacher cake is cool cut into half, add a layer of apricot jam.
Now melt the choclate for the icing with butter in bain marie and add the cream. Pour this over the chocolate and leave it to set.

Merry Christmas and enjoy your Sacher cake
