Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F (350°F for dark or nonstick pans). Line bottoms only of two 13x9-inch pans with foil or waxed paper; spray with baking spray with flour.
- In large bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on high speed about 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Add cake mix, water and oil; beat on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Place half the batter (about 2 1/2 cups) in each pan. Spread batter slightly higher in corners than at the center.
- Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched in center. Run knife around edges of pans to loosen cakes if necessary. Turn each cake upside down onto clean kitchen towel each sprinkled with 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; carefully remove foil. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
- In medium bowl, beat 3/4 cup of the whipping cream on high speed until stiff peaks form; set aside. In another medium bowl, beat cream cheese and 3 tablespoons powdered sugar on medium speed until smooth; set aside.
- In small microwavable bowl, microwave baking chips and 2 tablespoons whipping cream on High 30 seconds; stir. Microwave 15 to 30 seconds longer; stir until chips are melted. Stir melted chips into cream cheese mixture. Add whipped cream and toffee candy to mixture; stir until well blended. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Trim edges of cakes to make even. Cut each cake in half lengthwise. If necessary, trim top of layers to make flat surface. Place 1 cake piece on serving platter; spread with one-third of the filling (about 3/4 cup). Repeat layers twice. Top with remaining cake piece. Gently press in sides to straighten; if necessary, trim sides until even. Cover; refrigerate 30 minutes.
- In medium microwavable bowl, beat butter on medium speed until smooth. On low speed, beat in remaining glaze ingredients until well blended. Reserve 3/4 cup of the glaze for garnish; cover and let stand at room temperature about 30 minutes or until thick enough to pipe. Meanwhile, microwave remaining glaze on High about 10 seconds or until slightly warm and spreading consistency. Spread over top of torte, letting some drip down sides. Refrigerate torte about 30 minutes or until glaze is set.
- Spoon reserved 3/4 cup glaze into decorating bag fitted with small star tip. Pipe decorative border around top edges of torte. Refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Cut a square piece of parchment paper that is larger than the springform pan. Set it on the bottom of the springform pan and secure the ring on top; the paper will extend outside of the springform pan, which makes it easier to remove the torte after baking. Grease the sides of the springform pan.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate until melted. Allow to cool lightly.
- Beat egg yolks and 1/2 the sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and foamy, about 5 minutes. It is important to beat a lot of air into the egg yolks, so they almost triple in volume.
- Fold lightly cooled chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture using a spatula.
- Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy using the electric mixer on medium speed. Gradually add remaining sugar and salt, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Stir 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate batter to thin it out. Then carefully fold in the remaining egg whites using a spatula. Immediately transfer batter into the prepared springform pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until torte is no longer glossy, 30 to 40 minutes. Be careful not to bake too long, otherwise it will get dry.
- Cool on a wire rack until completely cool. Unmold carefully, since the torte breaks easily.

CHOCOLATE-BRITTLE TORTE
This is an American version of the Hungarian Dobos Torte. Six thin cake layers filled and frosted with dark chocolate cream, then topped with shattery caramel candy. I used to request this as my birthday cake as a kid because it looks so impressive and I loved to crack the candy topping. It really is more of a grown up cake though, not very sweet. I haven't had it in ages but it is well worth the work if you want to impress someone.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Grease bottoms of three 9-inch cake pans, line with wax paper and grease paper.
- Separate eggs, placing whites in a large bowl, 3 egg yolks in another large bowl, and set aside 3 yolks in a cup to make the frosting later.
- Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy white and double in volume. While beating, sprinkle in 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it forms soft peaks.
- Stir water into the 3 egg yolks in large bowl, beat until thick. Beat in remaining ½ cup of sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, until fluffy, then beat in vanilla and lemon extract.
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt over egg mixture and fold into it.
- Fold in meringue until no streaks remain.
- Measure ¾ cup (original says 1 1/3 cups but my Mother's note is ¾ cup) of batter into each of the prepared pans, spread to edges to make thin layers. (Cover remaining batter to make 3 more layers after these are done.).
- Bake layers 20 minutes, or until golden and centers spring back when lightly pressed with fingertip.
- Remove from pans, peel off wax paper and cool on racks.
- Wash pans, grease bottom, line with wax paper and grease paper. Make 3 more layers like the previous ones.
- Make Chocolate Cream:.
- In a medium bowl, beat egg yolks with water until thick. Beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until fluffy.
- Melt chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water, stir in egg mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute, or until mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
- Beat in rum extract and vanilla, cool slightly.
- In a medium size bowl, cream butter or margarine. Beat in chocolate mixture very slowly. (Mixture will be thin but will thicken as cream is folded in.).
- Beat cream until stiff in a small bowl; fold into chocolate mixture until no streaks of white remain.
- Assemble cake:.
- On a serving plate, put layers of cake together by spreading ½ cup chocolate cream between each. Chill cake and keep chocolate cream at room temperature while you make the brittle.
- Make Caramel Brittle:.
- Melt ¾ cup sugar over low heat in a small heavy saucepan, stirring often with a wooden spoon; just until golden. (Watch it, for sugar will turn brown quickly.).
- Pour slowly over cake at once, spreading quickly to the edge. (It hardens fast so be speedy.).
- Frost sides of cake with remaining chocolate cream, making deep swirls with the knife.
- Decorate top and bottom edges with walnut halves.
- Chill until serving time. Torte is best and cuts more neatly, if chilled overnight.
- When ready to serve, crack candy topping by tapping along cutting lines with a sharp heavy blade knife, then slice into serving size wedges.
