Directions:
- FOR THE MERINGUE TOPPING:.
- Make the meringue: whisk the egg whites until stiff, add half the sugar, whisk again until stiff, then repeat with the remaining sugar.
- Mix the coffee with 3 tbsp boiling water to dissolve the granules.
- Gently fold the walnuts and 1 tsp of the coffee into the meringue.
- Set aside while you make the cake mixture.
- MAKE THE CAKE:.
- Heat oven to (180C/160C fan/gas 4) 356ºF.
- Grease 2 x 8 loose-bottomed cake pans and line the bases with baking parchment.
- Beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then gradually whisk in the eggs.
- Fold in the flour and baking powder, then finally fold in 2 tsp of the coffee liquid.
- Divide the mixture between the 2 pans, putting a little more mixture in one than the other.
- Spread the meringue on top of the pan containing less cake mix.
- Bake the untopped sponge for about 20 mins until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Continue baking the meringue-topped sponge for an additional 20 mins, then carefully remove both cakes from their pans and leave to cool on a wire rack.
- TO MAKE THE FILLING:.
- Beat the butter and icing sugar together, adding 2 tsp more coffee.
- TO MAKE THE ICING:.
- Mix a final tsp of the coffee into the icing sugar.
- Add a drop more water to make a runny icing.
- Sandwich the 2 cakes together with the coffee filling, putting the meringue topped sponge on top.
- Drizzle all over with the coffee icing to finish.
