Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth batter, make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before mixing. This will help them emulsify properly.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate in the ganache.
  • If you don't have sabra liqueur, you can substitute another type of fruit liqueur, such as apricot or peach.
  • Be patient when making the ganache. It takes time for the chocolate to melt and combine with the cream.
  • To get a clean cut, chill the torte for at least 4 hours before serving.
