Steps

1
Done
|
Oven: 350f/180c. |
|
2
Done
|
(the Extra Tablespoon Butter Is Because the Original Recipe Is Metric and Asks For 125g Butter, Which Is Slightly More Than 4oz). |
|
3
Done
|
Use a Rectangular Cookie Tin, About 12 X 9 Inches or Slightly Smaller. |
|
4
Done
|
Grease It Well and Line With Baking or Wax Paper, and Make Sure There Is a Good Overhang to Provide You With a Grip to Lift Out the Cake Later. |
|
5
Done
|
Cream Butter and 3 1/2 Oz (125 Ml) of the Superfine Sugar Very Well Until Pale and Thick. Add the Egg Yolks and Whisk in Very Well. |

Whip the 2 Egg Whites Until Stiff, Then Add to It the Remaining 4 1/2 Oz of Superfine Sugar, and Whisk in Until You Have a Glossy Meringue. |
|

Crush the Nuts: a Mixture of Walnuts or Pecans, Plus Almonds Taste Very Good. |
|
11
Done

Spread the Meringue Over the Cake Layer. Sprinkle Over the Nuts. |
|
12
Done

Cool Cake Completely in the Pan. Then Slide Out Carefully With the Help of the Paper Overhang and Perhaps a Spatula If Needed, to a Cake Rack. |
|
