Tasty Tuesday: Honni-corn cake!

I made this for my birthday on friday, and OH MY, it was so tasty! It's very filling, so a small piece goes a long way! It's a marengue layer with the cereal "honni korn" on top and bottom, and inside the cake is one layer of chocolate cream and one layer of plain ole' whipped cream.

You'll need:

Marengue
- 3 egg whites
- 2 dl sugar
- 3 dl Honnikorn (rice crispies and other cereals of that type will do just fine)

Whip the eggwhites foamy. Add the sugar in small amounts and whip every time you've added some. Mix in the honni korn and put the mixture on a baking tray (about 25x30cm). Bake at the bottom shelf of  the oven at 150 degrees C for an hour. As this is both the bottom and the top layer you will have to cut the marengue in to two, after having done this all of one times I highly reccomend you do it as soon as it is out of the oven. Allow to cool.

Chocolate cream
- 3 egg yolkes
- 3/4 dl sugar
-3/4 dl cream
- 50g butter
- 100g dark chocolate (save 3 squares for decoration on top)

Heat egg yolkes, sugar and cream while stirring, don't allow it to boil. When it's a thick cream take it off the heat and add the butter and the chocolate. Allow to cool while you make whipped cream.

Whipped cream filling
- 3 dl cream
- sugar to taste

Put the bottom layer on a tray/plate/whatever. Spread the cold chocolate cream over it in a thick layer. Spread the whipped cream over the chocolate cream and place the top layer gently on top. Melt the remaining chocolate and decorate on top. (I put it in one of those small plastic bags which I put in a bowl with hot water, cut a hole in the corner of the bag and used that to decorate). Serve right away, Enjoy! (-:
