Matt request a white cake with light frosting. So this is what I came up with, stealing components from a few sources…
White Cake: http://cooksillustrated.com/recipes/detail.asp?docid=5694
Blueberry filling: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Blueberry-and-Orange-Layer-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-105183 Except I added some vanilla instead of the lemon zest.
Meringue Frosting: http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/meringue-frosted-cake-with-raspberry-filling?autonomy_kw=raspberry%20filling&rsc=header_1 Except I added 1/4 tsp of cream of tartar and a tsp of vanilla
Overall, it was a really light, yummy cake. I thought all the components worked well together and it was really cute with the meringue frosting. I’d definitely try it out with other fruit as well.
Now, however, I have to figure out what to do with the 10 egg yolks you are left over with from this recipe. Ideas anyone?
ice cream?
