i love the look of many layered things. so when i happened across the dobos torte, i was ecstatic. i made it as a desert to take to christina's house when a-gator was about 20 weeks old. i only remember this, because i wanted to make as many layers as a-gator was old, but ran out of batter at 16.
i followed this recipe from allrecipes.com
dobos torte
i didn't change anything as it was the first time making it, but i also didn't make the sugar topping or use the lemon zest. i just made a simple powdered sugar icing with cocoa powder to make it chocolate. I found this to be a little sweet, so the next time i might just make a dark chocolate ganache to drizzle over the cake (and in between the layers of course!)
It was still delicious, and the thinner you sliced the cake, the better it tasted.
