what's in Bischofsbrot, again?

It's supposed to be made (at least according to our recipe) with slivered almonds, raisins, candied citron peel, and chopped dark chocolate; we left out the citron and replaced the raisins with tart cherries, but the incredibly time-consuming batter was faithfully observed. I will let you know how it comes out.

PS: Am now imagining it as bread by or for Bernhard Bischoff, possibly incorporating small scraps of parchment, or Latin texts written on the top in icing.

. . . Now I really want to make that. Edible Festschrift.
