I tasted this in Germany, when I was visiting a native Austrian friend. The
recipe is from his grandmother who lived outside of Linz.
Beat 90 grams butter with 80 grams powdered sugar until creamy. Add 4 egg
yolks (save the whites) and mix well.
Melt 90 grams semisweet chocolate and add it to the mix. Beat 4 egg whites
and add 80 grams of granulated sugar. Slowly add this mixture to the
chocolate mixture. Last, fold 90 grams of flour & 1/2 tsp of baking powder
into the mixture.
Bake 60-70 minutes (perhaps less) at 170 degrees (Centigrade)
Cut the baked cake once, put down a layer of apricot marmalade, and put it
back together.
Cover cake with melted semi-sweet chocolate.
Options: When cake is cut, sprinkle rum on cake. Before covering with
chocolate, roll marzipan dough flat, and cover cake with thin layer.
