Add melted butter and vanilla and beat until smooth. Make the common meringue with the sugar and salt. Fold the meringue into the chocolate, leaving some traces of white. Shift the flour and carefully fold the chocolate and meringue, fold until there is no trace of white. Pour into two 9 inch cake pans, lined with parchment, Bake at 350F (170F) until done
Combine the chocolate, cream, and sugar and corn syrup. Cook over low heat stirring continually. Raise the heat and cook for 5 minutes. In a bowl beat the egg lightly, add 3 Tablespoons chocolate to the egg then pour the mixture back into the rest and cook for 2 minutes or until the glaze coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat, and stir in the vanilla. Cool to room temperature. When the cake has cooled, spread 1 layer with the jam, then place the other layer on top, making sure they are straight and even. Set the cake on a rack and pour the glaze over the cake evenly. Smooth with a palette knife and refrigerate. The work "Sacher" may be written in chocolate across the top.
