Hello, I am surprised, that no one has mention a Sacher Torte. It is very dry and dense. To counteract the dryness, it is served with whipped cream. The recipe that I use is from Rick Rogers cookbook Kaffeehouse.

Yes it does. Lol...................looks kind of small compared to what my Granmother made. It was a 12 person dining room table covered with the dough. Thank you.

Hello, Strudel is a dessert that I have grown up with. Every Christmas my grandmother made it from scratch. She started it a few days before the holidays by making the dough and then stretching it out all over the dining room table covered with the cloth. The dough was left out over night to dry. It was so thin that you could read a newspaper through it. My mother continued the tradition until she become too old to do it. When the duty of making the strudel fell on me I decided to take the easy way out and use Phyllo dough. When I talk to my mom about the strudel I joke with her that she must be the last person alive to know how to stretch the dough. The recipe that I use is almost identical to the recipe used by Rick Rodgers is his cookbook.
