BIEN ME SABE (VENEZUELAN COCONUT LAYER CAKE)
Entered for safe-keeping for ZWT; this is an adaptation of several recipes. "Bien Me Sabe" translates as "Tastes Good To Me", and there are regional variations across Spanish-speaking countries. This is a traditional (very sweet) dessert in Venezuela. I would describe this as similar to Tiramisu, but the Venezuelan Bien Me Sabe typically has a distinctive meringue topping. As a make-ahead alternative, bake individual meringues (using pastry bag with tip) on parchment paper and place on refrigerated cake mixture just before serving.
