Layered Egg Yolk and Meringue Dessert (Moka-Style Cake)

Ingredients

• 3 egg yolks
• 100 grams sugar
• 3 egg whites
• 100 grams sugar
• sponge cake (bizcocho)
• ground cinnamon
• ground chocolate

Instructions

1. Beat the three egg yolks with 100 grams of sugar until pale and creamy.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the three egg whites to stiff peaks (punto de nieve), then fold in the remaining 100 grams of sugar until the mixture resembles meringue.
3. Spread the mixture in a plate as you would for a moka cake. Layer it as follows: a layer of the yolk paste, then a layer of sponge cake (bizcocho), then a layer of meringue. Repeat the layers, taking care to finish with the meringue layer on top.
4. Dust the top generously with ground cinnamon, or preferably with ground chocolate.
