You wouldn't guess it from its rustic appearance but the Ritz Torte has an elegant balance of flavors and textures: sweet and salty chewy and crunchy rich and light.
This regional dessert from Appalachia features a Ritz cracker and pecan meringue piled high with whipped cream and topped with chocolate shavings. The base is crunchy and chewy like a macaron but the buttery Ritz crackers and nutty pecans make it sweet and salty. It has some rich ingredients but the meringue and whipped cream keep it feeling light.
