ISO recipe to use as cake filling. Whip and cream appear to be unavailable I went everywhere yesterday and the shops have sold out. I am going to make a cake as close to a black forest as possible and have the cherries. Need the recipe to make for Sunday so due to time differences please post before your Shabbas if you can help.

Meringue Cream Cake

Meringe Layer
-10 egg whites
-2 cups sugar
-1 lb. ground almonds

Grease and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper, then grease the paper. Set aside.
Creat a snow with the egg whites, slowly adding the sugar a bit at a time once the whites start to become frothy. Continue to beat until soft peaks form.
Fold in almonds.
Divide the batter between the two cookie sheets, and spread it out with a spatula.
Bake in oven preheated to 300F degrees, for 1 hour.

Chocolate Cream Filling
-10 yolks
-2 cups sugar
-1 1/4 cups oil
-5 Tbsp cocoa

While the meringue layers are baking, create a double boiler.
Combine all ingredients, and stir over double broiler for 1 hour until mixture becomes a cream.

To Assemble
Spread half of the cream over one of the meringue layers. Top with second meringue. Continue with remaining cream on top.
Freeze uncovered, overnight.

You're a gem ra_mon who can always be relied on. Thank you so much for finding the time to post so close to Pesach but the recipe says 2 cups - of what?
