That’s what I did, but it did not work for some reason. The nuts and meringue (especially the nuts) were burned before the time was up. At that point the edges of the cake were baked, but the center was still very runny. I’d like to figure out the problem. The cake is very good. I haven’t tried it again with the meringue, but made just the cake. However, I love crunchy meringue and would love to make it work.

The only thing that comes to mind immediately is oven temperature. I don’t currently have an oven thermometer to check it, but have not had issues baking other things. And I suppose I could have set the oven wrong, for that matter.

You bake the cake with the meringue with the nuts on it for the entire time stated. It bakes with the cake and gets nice and crunchy adding a layer of goodness to the cake. Please let me know if you make it again.

The cake was tasty – after I figured out it wasn’t working and pulled off the meringue and finished baking the cake.

So I’d like to know how this is supposed to be done. Do you bake just the cake at 350 for 50 minutes? Does the meringue go on the cake while it’s hot, or does the cake need to cool? Does the meringue get some kind of cooking as well?

I found it! This was easy, stress-free and DELICIOUS! Very VERY moist. Even the picky teen loved it! Thank you for sharing!
