  • 1 Tbs cornstarch
  • 4 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

Beat egg whites and only 2 tablespoons of sugar into stiff peaks.

Add half of the marzipan and amaretto, mix and combine.

Pour the mixture into a suitable silicon mould (or regular round shape greased and sprinkled with bread crumbs).

Sprinkle the top with the rest of the marzipan and sliced almonds.

Bake the cake in the oven at 180C for 30 - 40 minutes or until done (the trick with a toothpick).

Let it completely cool in the mould, then turn onto a serving plate.
