πŸ’ German Cherry Cream Meringue Cake (Crispy, Creamy & Irresistibly Elegant)

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter

In a large bowl, beat the soft butter with sugar and vanilla sugar until light and fluffy.
Separate the eggs and add the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

In another bowl, combine flour and baking powder, then sift into the batter and mix until smooth.

2. Bake the First Layer

Grease the base of a 26 cm (10-inch) springform pan. Spread half of the batter evenly in the pan.

Beat 2 egg whites with 70 g sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the meringue over the batter and sprinkle with half of the sliced almonds.

Bake in a preheated oven at 160Β°C (320Β°F, fan) for 30–35 minutes, until lightly golden.
Remove from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.

3. Bake the Second Layer

Repeat the same process with the remaining batter, egg whites, sugar, and almonds to create the second cake layer. Let it cool completely.
