The Recipe:
You can gain a pound just by looking at the picture, but what an indulgently decadent way to go!
According to The Worldwide Gourmet:
"The history of the world-famous Sacher Torte dates back to 1832, when the still omnipotent 'Coachman of Europe,' Wenzel Clemens Prince Metternich, gave the order to create a particularly delicious dessert for his pampered aristocratic guests. 'And don't disgrace me tonight!' he told sixteen-year-old apprentice Franz Sacher, who created this delicacy while covering for the chef who was on his sickbed. His efforts proved a huge success: the beginning of what is perhaps the world’s most famous cake."
Unlike Franz Sacher, you don't have to tackle this task from scratch. You can get all the info to make your own version just by clicking here.
