Dacquoise Layers

Method

Preparing the Dacquoise

  1. 1

    Preheat and Prepare

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and draw circles (about 8 inches in diameter) on the parchment as guides.

  2. 2

    Whip Egg Whites

    In a clean mixing bowl, whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.

  3. 3

    Fold Ingredients

    Sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the whipped egg whites until just combined.

  4. 4

    Pipe the Mixture

    Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and pipe onto the prepared baking sheets, forming two even circles.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the dacquoise layers are dry and easily lift off the parchment paper. Let cool completely.
