How to make a snowman cake

Step 1 - preliminary preparations

• Preheat the oven to 100 degrees (fan-assisted).
• Line the bottom of the baking pan with parchment paper - leave the sides empty.

Step 2 - preparing the meringues

• Prepare two meringue layers separately - if you have two identical pans, you can bake them at the same time.
• Briefly whisk the egg whites until they are slightly fluffy.
  2 x 2 egg whites
  
• Add sugar to them in portions, mixing on high speed with a mixer - mix until you get smooth, white egg whites and all the sugar has dissolved (you won't feel sugar crystals).
  2 x 100 g sugar
  
• Add potato flour and lemon juice to the egg whites - mix briefly.
  2 x 0.5 teaspoons potato starch, 2 x 0.5 teaspoons lemon juice
  
• Spread the meringue into the pan and level it.
  
• Place in the hot oven and bake for about an hour.
• After baking, trim the meringue, remove it from the pan, and prepare the second meringue layer as before.
• Cool the meringues completely.

Step 3 - prepare the Oreo cream

• Transfer the cream cheese to a bowl and briefly mix with powdered sugar.
  250 g mascarpone cheese, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  
• Add the heavy cream in portions and mix on high speed until you get a thick cream.
  250 ml heavy cream
  
• Add powdered milk and briefly mix.
  50 g milk powder
  
• Coarsely chop the cookies.
  approx. 100 g dark cookies
  
• Add the cookies to the cream and mix with a spoon.
  

Step 4 - assembling the cake

• Spread the cream with cookies onto the meringue base placed in the mold and level it.
  
• Place the second meringue layer, using the baking paper it was baked on to help (don't worry if the meringue cracks slightly).
  

Step 5 – Preparing the whipped cream.

• Whip the heavy cream together with the sugar until it forms thick whipped cream.
  250 ml heavy cream, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  
• Spread the whipped cream on top of the cake.
  
• Put the cake in the refrigerator for about 2–4 hours.
