GeorgiaSo the hubs was the one who suggested torte as this weeks food challenge. And by torte he meant that ^^^. Okay. So not even what I would consider a classic torte it was still pretty tasty. I feel like I may need to bake or make a real torte one of these days. Cammy
MandyJenNikitaOk, how many of ya'll googled "torte" and sooooo many options came up. I saw general cakes, pies that looked like thick tarts, and then MERINGUE! Because lemon desserts give me all the happiness in the world, I looked specifically for a Lemon Torte and came across this recipe. It's made up of four meringue disks stacked with lemon curd and whipped cream between each layer. The meringue disks remind me of large macarons except no cute macaron feet. I used almond flour and crushed almonds in lieu of cashews because that is what I had in the pantry. After it was assembled, I froze it and we ate it the following day. TIP: Remove from freezer and let it stand for 15 mins before serving. It tastes so much better when it's not hard as a rock. The chewy almond meringue layers balance the tart lemon curd and fluffy whipped cream. The perfect treat on a hot summer day! Enjoy! ZaneSavory, sweet and over the top.
Until next week, Georgia, Cammy, Mandy, Jen, Nikita and Zane
