The Project: Chocolate meringue layer cake

This article was originally on a blog post platform and may be missing photos, graphics or links. See About archive blog posts.

Each Friday, we select a recipe from the L.A. Times Test Kitchen archives that’s perfect for weekend cooking -- when you have a little more time on your hands. This week? It’s a stunning chocolate meringue layer cake.

This cake will take about three hours to make -- but don’t panic. Most of that is unattended cooking.

If you try this or any other recipes from the L.A. Times Test Kitchen, we want to know about it so we can showcase it on the blog, and occasionally in print. Upload your photos of the finished dish here.
