The cookie part is a buttery, chocolaty, nut wafer with also a touch of lemon zest and cinnamon. In between will be a thin layer of raspberry preserves and a layer of hazelnut rum filling. Then once sandwiched and firmed a bit, I will dip the sandwich cookies' tops in chocolate and put either a half of a walnut or a half blanched/skinned almond on top of that. They are called Ischel Torte Cookies and are based on the favorite cookie of the emperor Franz Joseph I from the Austro-Hungarian empire.
Yummy!

How soon does your holiday catalog come out?
I think I have put my name on the list?
I am looking forward to buying dozens and dozens!

I have days, too, where I intend to do only things that make me feel better and/or days in which I avoid controversy.

You have alot gong on. Good for you for setting aside some sane time!!!

Much Love
