Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ⅓ cup grated chocolate
- ½ cup Jordan almonds, blanched and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ cup cracker dust
Directions
1
Beat yolks of eggs until thick and lemon-colored; add sugar gradually, then fold in white of eggs beaten until stiff and dry. Add chocolate, almonds, baking powder, and cracker dust. Bake in a round pan. Cool, split, and put whipped cream, sweetened and flavored, between and on top. Garnish with angelica and candied cherries. This makes a most attractive dessert when baked in individual tins. As soon as cool, remove centres, and fill with whipped cream, forced through a pastry bag.
