Sachertorte (German Chocolate Cake)

• 4 eggs
• 3 1/4 tablespoons sugar
• 7 5/8 tablespoons dark chocolate
• 5/8 cup flour
• 9/16 cup almonds ground
• 4 15/16 tablespoons butter
• 6 3/8 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon yeast
• orange marmalade
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 dash brandy
• 1 3/16 cups dark chocolate
• 1 2/3 cups whipping cream
• 3 1/2 tablespoons butter

1. Preheat the oven to 170 Celsius.
2. Beat the whites with the 40 grams of sugar to form peaks and set aside.
3. Melt the chocolate with the butter in a double boiler, remove from heat, and beat in the eggs one by one along with the rest of the sugar.
4. Sift the flour and yeast and gently mix into the chocolate mixture. Add the almonds and then fold in the egg whites.
5. Pour into a greased and floured cake pan. Bake 30 minutes, remove from pan, and cool on a baking rack.
6. Mix the water, sugar, and brandy together in a saucepan and heat until a syrup is formed. Set aside to cool.
7. Slice the cake into two layers horizontally, sprinkle liberally with the syrup, and spread with the marmalade.
8. Make the glaze by placing the cream in a saucepan. Remove from heat when it begins to boil and add the chocolate and butter. Stir until completely melted and homogeneous. Pour over the cake and allow to harden before serving.
