  1. 1 Butter a 9 inch square metal pan. Place a sheet of parchment paper in the bottom. Butter the parchment, and flour the whole pan. Position the rack of the oven to the lowest level, and preheat the broiler.
  2. 2 In a large bowl, cream the butter or margarine until light and fluffy. Add in the almond paste in small chunks; beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and salt. Beat in the yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until smooth.
  3. 3 In another bowl, beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Add in the sugar slowly while continuing to beat the meringue to stiff, glossy peaks. Fold the meringue into the yolk mixture. Sift the flour over this, and fold in.
  4. 4 Spoon a small amount of batter onto the parchment in the baking pan. With a pastry brush, paint the batter on. You want to cover the paper completely, but have a thin layer. Place under the broiler, and cook until light brown; this should take about 1 to 2 minutes. Brush another layer of the batter over the cake, and place under the broiler. Continue on in this way until all of the batter is used. Cool completely. Turn the cake out of the pan, and trim the edges clean.
  5. 5 In a double boiler, combine the chocolate and the oil. Heat until the chocolate is smooth. With a pastry brush, brush one side of the trimmed cake with some chocolate. Don't make it too thick. Allow this to harden. Turn the cake over, and brush the other side. Allow the cake to set. Cut the cake into 6 narrow strips, each about 1-1/2 inches wide. Brush the sides and top with the glaze, and allow to set. Store in the refrigerator, but serve at room temperature.

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans with baking spray; line bottoms with parchment paper. Lightly spray parchment paper with baking spray.
  2. 2 Sift flour, cornstarch, and baking powder into a medium bowl; whisk in salt and set aside.
  3. 3 Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 to 4 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. (The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color.)
  4. 4 Beat in eggs, one at a time, on medium speed, allowing each egg to blend into butter mixture before adding the next, 1 to 2 minutes total. Beat in 2 teaspoons vanilla. With mixer on medium-low speed, add flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk, beating until just combined after each addition.
  5. 5 Evenly divide batter between prepared pans and spread into an even layer using a small offset spatula. Firmly tap pans on a kitchen towel-lined counter several times to help get rid of any large bubbles in the batter.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18 to 22 minutes. Cool cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn the cakes out onto a wire rack. Let stand, parchment side down, on wire racks until cooled completely, about 1 hour.
  7. 7 Remove and discard parchment paper. Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate. Stir preserves in a small bowl until mostly smooth; spread in an even layer over cake.
  8. 8 To make vanilla whipped cream: Whisk heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract by hand in a large bowl until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. 2 To make the cake layers: Sift flour and baking powder together into a bowl; set aside. Beat 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in white sugar, vanilla extract, and 5 egg yolks. Stir in flour mixture until just combined.
  3. 3 Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy; continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
  4. 4 Gently fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter, keeping as much volume as possible. Add the remaining egg whites, folding just until incorporated.
  5. 5 Pour half of the batter into a separate bowl. Sift cocoa powder into one bowl of batter; stir until just combined.
  6. 6 Pour white cake batter into the prepared baking dish, then spread chocolate cake batter on top. Pat cherries dry with paper towels, and sprinkle them evenly on top.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes; set aside to cool.
  8. 8 To make the custard filling: Whisk cornstarch and 1/2 cup sugar together in a small bowl. Heat milk in a small saucepan just until hot but not boiling. Whisk in cornstarch mixture until smooth; bring mixture to a boil, whisking constantly, until mixture is thick and easily coats the back of a spoon, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  9. 9 Spread custard filling over cooled cake; press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard filling so it doesn't form a skin. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours to overnight.
  10. 10 To make the chocolate glaze: Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 30 second intervals, stirring each time, until just melted and smooth. Stir in oil until glossy.
  11. 11 Spread chocolate glaze over chilled custard layer. When the glaze has set slightly, about 10 minutes, drag a fork lightly across the surface in wavy lines to create a wave pattern on the chocolate.
  12. 12 Let glaze set completely before slicing cake into squares. Enjoy!

Instructions

  1. 1 Place cornstarch, sugar, and salt into a saucepan; stir in 1/2 cup coconut milk to make a smooth paste. Stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups coconut milk,; bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until thickened so that it coats the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Pour into a 9x13-inch baking dish; refrigerate until cold.
  2. 2 Cut chilled pudding into 24 squares and serve cold.
