how to make a layered chocolate meringue cake-
Prepare the cake layers. Beat egg whites until stiff and glossy then slowly add sugar and mix until stiff peaks form. With a spatula, stir in the chopped walnuts. Divide mixture between four pans and bake. TIP: If you don’t have four cake pans, I’d highly recommend doing half the mixture and baking then preparing the second one and bake. Prepare the cream. Beat the butter until creamy, add in the condensed milk, cocoa, and rum. Beat just until combined, don’t overbeat. Refrigerate the cream until ready to use. Assemble the cake. Once the cake layers have completely cooled, assemble the cake. Place the first layer on a cake platter, top with cream. Continue with the remaining layers. Generously spread the remaining cream over top and sides of the cake.
You can decorate the cake how you like, I added chocolate shavings to the sides of the cake and melted chocolate for the top and created a design. Since the main ingredient in the cream is butter, it’s best to keep the cake refrigerated until it’s ready to be served.
The cake might seem complicated, it truly isn’t. The hardest part is waiting for the layers to bake and then cool. Once that’s done, you’re good to go. Once you give this recipe a try, I promise, this cake will become a favorite!
This cake is so beautiful and tall once baked and assembled. It makes for a great dessert choice for the Holidays. This cake is very rich and I’d advise cutting the pieces smaller, you can always have seconds.
