How to Make Almond Cake With Meringue And Whipped Cream Filling

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. 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.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
  6. Prepare meringue: In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until glossy and stiff peaks hold.
  7. Fold in almond extract and almond flour.
  8. Spread meringue over cooled cake layers.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  10. Prepare whipped cream filling: In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
  11. 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.
  12. Drizzle with melted chocolate and garnish as desired.
