Comment préparer Grandma's Baked Alaska
- **Cake:**
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 4 large egg yolks, and 1/2 cup water. Mix according to cake mix instructions.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Ensure the center is slightly lower than the edges.
- Let the cake cool completely before proceeding.
- **Ice Cream Layer:**
- Allow 2 pints of strawberry ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature (about 10-15 minutes).
- Spread the softened ice cream evenly over the cooled cake, leaving a 1/2-inch gap from the edges of the pan.
- Place the pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the ice cream is firm.
- **Meringue:**
- Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
- In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Carefully spread the meringue over the frozen ice cream, completely sealing the edges to the pan to prevent ice cream melting during baking.
- Bake for 3-5 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
