Linzertorte

These are easier to make and lower in fat than traditional Linzertorten, but have just as much flavor.

The waitress jotted down two coffees and Nusshörnchen, although I wanted a slice of Linzertorte and peppermint tea.

But Burton relented, and on the morning of Alice’s first visit had gone to the local village to buy sticky buns and the Linzertortes that were colonising bakeries throughout the country.

She stayed long enough to have a slice of linzertorte, then excused herself.

I have tasted linzertorten in Vienna, in Salzburg, even in Linz, where it was created. It is always a little different. I have seen it with red currants, with the raspberry preserves mixed with applesauce, with almonds instead of hazelnuts.

This is all by way of saying that for Babsie’s Tarts, my aim was to develop individual linzertortes, of equal size.
