How to Make Almond Cake With Meringue And Whipped Cream Filling
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- Prepare cake layers: In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Prepare meringue: In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until glossy and stiff peaks hold.
- Fold in almond extract and almond flour.
- Spread meringue over cooled cake layers.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Prepare whipped cream filling: In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Assemble the cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the whipped cream over the layer. Top with the second cake layer and remaining whipped cream.
- Drizzle with melted chocolate and garnish as desired.
