Cooking

Beat egg whites to soft peaks, then still whisking, add a teaspoon of sugar and beat until strong peaks. I took squirrels, which stood in the refrigerator for a week (!). And made sure that it is from these "experienced" protein makes the perfect crust meringue.

Chop not too finely the nuts. Gently mix whites with nuts.

Covered baking paper baking tray, put aboard a split form with the bottom on the paper.

Spread the meringue with the spatula. Send it into the oven.

I baked at a temperature of 60 degrees with the half-opened oven for 1.5 hours. Made the cake in advance. It turned out to be high and dry.

Make a chocolate cake. Beat the eggs with sugar (about 10 minutes).

Melt water bath butter, add chocolate and cognac. To cool down a bit.

Add to the scrambled eggs, chocolate, flour, baking powder and beat for another 3 minutes.

Grease a baking dish with butter, put the dough. Send in the oven for 40-45 minutes at 160 degrees. Cake cool and cut in half.

For the cream mix the cream, sugar, eggs and cooking in a water bath.

When the mixture heats up add the cocoa and mix thoroughly. The cream does not boil so that the eggs don't curdle. To cool the cream. Beat soft butter, gradually add custard

Ganache. In a water bath melt the chocolate in the cream, then add the butter.

Put the meringue between chocolate cakes. Fluff cream.

Remaining cream to lubricate the sides of cake. The upper part of the cake to grease with ganache.

For decoration I used chocolate candy "sea" theme, crushed cookies - still the bottom of the sea, and marmalade in the form of shells, stars, etc. Ready!

So it is in the context. I do not know. how to add big picture to the recipe..
