Protein Cake
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. There are many variations of meringue cake. You can make it similar to a praline cake or a Kyiv-style cake. I simply make meringue layers without any additives. To prepare the meringue cake, we will need 12 eggs. We'll separate the whites from the yolks—the whites will be used for the layers, and the yolks for the cream. Check out the recipe. Can be served with tea or coffee.
