SANS RIVAL RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare four 9-inch pans by greasing them and adding parchment paper to them. Set aside.
• In a bowl, whip the egg whites until they become frothy. Add in the cream of tartar and continue to beat. Gradually (1 to 2 tablespoons at a time) add in the sugar and continue to beat until all of the sugar is incorporated and the egg whites are shiny and form stiff peaks.
• Fold in the 1 cup of finely ground cashews and divide the meringue into the 4 pans equally. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown (mine were done after about 23 minutes).
• While the meringues are still warm, remove them from the pans and parchment paper because the paper can be more difficult to remove once cooled.
• When the meringues are fully cooled, line them up on top of one another to trim the edges evenly. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, prepare the French buttercream. Beat the egg yolks until they thicken and double in volume.
• Heat the sugar and water until the mixture reaches 235 degrees F (or thread stage). Keeping the mixer on high, slowly pour in the sugar mixture to the egg yolks.
• Be sure to continuously beat so that the egg yolks do not cook and be careful not to burn yourself as well. I had to make Dave come and help me during this stage (he held the mixer while I poured the sugar in).
• Once the sugar mixture is completely incorporated, continue beating on high speed for about 15 minutes, or until the mixture has reached room temperature.
• Then, keeping the mixer on high, beat in the butter one tablespoon at a time until all of the butter in mixed in. Add in the flavoring of your choice and let set in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• To assemble, place a meringue layer down on a plate or cake board and spread a thin layer of buttercream on top. Add a second meringue layer on top of that and repeat until all of the layers are stacked and lightly frosted.
• Finish by frosting the sides and top of the cake and by adding the rest of the chopped cashews around the sides for decoration.
• Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line 4 - 8x12 inch pans with parchment paper.
• In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Sprinkle with cream of tartar. Gradually add 2 cups white sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold in 2 cups chopped nuts. Divide meringue between the 4 pans, and spread evenly to edges.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until light golden brown. Remove the meringue from the baking pans while still hot; allow to cool. When cool, trim edges so that all 4 meringue layers are uniformly shaped. Set aside.
• To make buttercream filling: In a large bowl, Beat butter until light and fluffy. In a separate large bowl, whip egg yolks until thick and lemon colored.
• Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine 2 cups sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, and heat to 270 to 290 degrees F (132 to 143 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard but pliable threads. Add the hot syrup in a thin stream to the beaten egg yolks, while beating at high speed. Beat in the whipped butter until smooth. Beat in rum.
• On one layer of meringue, spread approximately 1/4 of the buttercream evenly to edges. Repeat layers until all is used. Smooth sides with spatula. Sprinkle top with 2 cups chopped cashews. Freeze until solid. To serve, cut 1 inch slices from the frozen dessert.

Steps:

• To make the meringue, start by beating the egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually add the sugar, and after each addition, beat well to incorporate. Now, beat the egg whites until they become very stiff. Finally, fold in the cashew nuts and vanilla.
• Thinly spread the meringue on three greased and floured 18x15-inch (45x38 cm) baking trays. Bake in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown. While still hot, transfer the meringues out of the baking sheets on a flat surface to cool.
• For the French buttercream, first, boil the sugar and water until a syrup-like consistency, and separately, beat the egg yolks well until thick.
• Pour the still-hot sugar syrup in thin streams into a bowl with egg yolks while beating continuously, and then leave to cool.
• Cream the butter and add the egg yolk mixture and rum; mix until well blended.
• Assemble the cake by coating each meringue layer with cream and then stacking them. Spread the cream on top and the sides of the assembled cake and sprinkle with chopped cashew nuts. Leave to chill before serving.
