Instructions to make Lemon Meringue Cake:
- Preheat oven to 180.
- Grease and line x2 cake tins with baking paper.
- If you want to make your own lemon butter do so before making the cake… otherwise set aside a brought jar…..
- Next make the cake: in a mixing bowl combined the flour, sugar… make a well in the centre, add the eggs and milk stir with wooden spoon to combined.
- add the lemon juice, zest and melted butter stir again….
- Divide cake mix into both baking tins evenly… bake for 45mins…or until firm to touch….
- Once cakes are cooked allow to cool completely before cutting through the middle to make 4 layers… (set aside for now).
- To make the Meringue: beat the egg whites in a clean bowl with a electric beater on low….
- once they start to form bubbles turn up slowly to a medium speed… slowly add the sugar 1 tablespoon at a time…. add vinegar and pinch of salt… continue to beat until forms very smooth white stiff peaks…..
- Now to put it all together… place a bottom peice of the cake onto a baking tray lined with baking paper… (I used a round pizza tray).
- Squeeze the juice of half a lemon on cake followed by spreading a layer of lemon butter then another layer of cake, more juice on top followed by another layer off lemon butter…. this until all layers of cake are used….
- dont put any lemon butter or juice on the top peice of the cake… as meringue will not stick properly with the next step.
- Now that the cake and layers are done cover the whole cake with meringue mix…making pointy peeks all over the cake…..
- Place back to the oven on 200 for 20mins until meringue is lightly browning or alternatively you could finish it off with a blow torch…..
