If you want to impress your guests this is the cake that you have to make. I promise they will love it! Crunchy bottom layer, soft chocolate whipped cream with strawberries and meringue. Totally delicious cake ever!

I made this cake few weeks ago for a party gathering that I spent with friends. When I was making this cake I had so many ideas. I didn’t know which way to go. However, the cake is my experiment that turn out the best cake you will have. The best part is that each layer perfectly suits the other. Crunchy buttery bottom and chocolate whipped cream that lays on top. The cake is not so sweet itself. I actually didn’t add so much sugar to the bottom or middle layer. As we all know the meringue needs some sugar. Anyway, when you’ll make it you’ll see the cake is perfectly balanced.

This dessert requires a little time, because each layer is prepared separately. The bottom has to be baked for 20 minutes and cooled off completely before doing anything more. The chocolate whipped cream is not baked and the meringue has to be baked by itself. After all the process you just need to lay them nicely one by one.

I don’t bake meringue often at home but whenever I do it is always a success for me. When you follow my steps you’ll see how simple is that.

What are you waiting for? Just go to the kitchen and make this cake, you”ll love it!
