Delicio Recipe List

While in Vienna, I had the opportunity to taste the original Sacher Torte at the Hotel Sacher Vienna, which is considered one of the most recognized cakes in the world. It's a soft and light chocolate cake with a touch of apricot jam and coated with chocolate icing, usually served with whipped cream. Although the original recipe is said to be a secret, a German friend gave me this recipe (a Viking River Cruise recipe) , which is nearly as delicious. Quality chocolate is a must. Enjoy! Cake Ingredients : 10 tablespoons butter, softened 1/2 cup sifted confectioners' sugar 6 large eggs, whites and yokes separated 5 ounces fine artisan dark chocolate (around 70% cacao), cut into several large chunks for easier melting 2/3 cup flour 1/2 cup sugar 2 tablespoons good quality apricot jam Whipped cream, for garnish, if desired Glaze Ingredients : 8 ounces fine artisan dark chocolate (around 70% cacao), cut into several large chunks 2 tablespoons butter Directions : Preheat oven to 375 d...

Mama called it Cheese Toast, but my son calls it Pizza Toast. It is such a simple, easy and tasty treat. Whether it'd for an after school snack or add meat for a meal, it's sure to please kids of any age! I used my own homemade Pizza Sauce, but you can use your favorite brand. I also used a Colby Jack Cheese blend, but again use your favorite. The possibilities are endless! 1 French Bread Loaf, cut in thick slices Pizza Sauce  (or spaghetti sauce) 2 cups Colby Jack Cheese blend (optional) pepperoni, onion, peppers, olives Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spread slices of bread with a tablespoon or so of sauce. Top with the toppings of your choice, or simply top with cheese. Place them on a cookie sheet and bake for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. If serving to children, be sure to let them sit until the cheese has cooled enough to be safe.
