Hi all,

I found the recipe. It is called Jungfrauentorte but a subtitle in brackets
says Traunkirchner Torte.

I googled the second one and indeed this is more like my recipe:

http://books.google.ca/books?id=ej3cNgbF90gC&pg=PA42&lpg=PA42&dq=traunkirchn
er+torte+recipe&source=bl&ots=hr-XbKZn9w&sig=Jx3pY1cmyPFRGnzwBbcjTiar5uo&hl=
en&sa=X&ei=YVFPUYPaG-Ki0AGg34HADw&sqi=2&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=traunkirchne
r%20torte%20recipe&f=false

 
My quantities are somewhat different:

For the 4 layers -

300 g flour
200 g butter
80 g sugar
2 egg yolks
A pinch of salt

For the filling:

120 g egg whites (from 4 big eggs)
80-100 g sugar
250-300 g apricot jam

The "how to" is well described at the link above. The filling needs a lot of
whisking to make it smooth and thick.

Daniel
