It’s really difficult to explain one of the most delicious tastes that I know!

But I can tell you this: This cookie is one of the reasons why I love my wife!

She has been doing these cookies for almost 10 years (2-3 times a year), and I’ve never EVER got enough of them. More so, all our guests were really impressed and asked for the recipe.

This time she let me take some pictures and explain the process.

It’s nothing related to prepping… just a really nice thing to try out. Or if you store/have some walnuts that are about to expire (usually 1 year shelf-life) you can turn them into these awesome cookies!

You’ll need

  • ingredients for the best cake6 eggs
  • 2 glassfuls of ground walnuts
  • 1 pounds sugar (500g)
  • 4 Tbsp. Milk
  • 1 Tbsp. Cacao
  • Margarine
  • 1 oz rum extract – Rum extract is your best option but if you don’t have it, any extract will work.
  • 1 Tbsp. Vinegar

Making the meringues

First separate the egg whites from yolks. separating the yelks from the egg whites

In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites (I used a manual whisk) until frothy. Add 0.66 pounds sugar (a glassful plus a few Tbsp. – 3/5 of total sugar).

I highly recommend mixing the white eggs with the sugar over a boiling pot.

After mixing for 5-10 minutes the foam should harden a little bit. Now add 1-2 Tbsp. of vinegar and mix for only 15 seconds (it will harden quickly). Take the bowl away from heat. This is how it should look like: how to make cake at home - the best

Add 1 glassful of ground walnuts (half) and mix it in the same bowl. the most delicious cake you can make at home

Add the mixture in a pastry bag (or any kind of plastic bag and cut one corner). The meringues should be about 1.5 – 2 inches (4-5 cm) large and 0.5 inches (1-1.5 cm) high (there are no rules; you can make them any size you want). delicios homemade cake

Bake for about 1 hour at 160° F (70° C).

Assembling the Cookies

Before assembling the cake you have cool down the cream and the meringues. But not fast. Simply let them stay at room temperature for 15 minutes. (Optional – Then you can refrigerate them for 5 minutes to assemble them easier)

Spread the cream (about one and a half tsp.) over the top of a meringue. the most delicious cake at homeAdd another meringue on top.

    I am very curious about your “glass full” as I have about 5 different sizes of glasses. So, which one should I use? Could you tell me approximately how much in cups/pints/teaspoons/ etc? Thank you for you help.
