Chocolate Meringue Marvel

Directions

1. 1
   Put the cake cubes in a baking dish.
2. 2
   You can sprinkle with some sort of liquid, such as simple syrup, juice, or alcohol, but it isnt necessary.
3. 3
   Whip the egg whites until foamy, then add 2 tablespoons sugar per egg white and continue to whip until the whites hold firm peaks (you can do this by hand with a whisk, but it will be infinitely quicker and easier with an electric mixer).
4. 4
   Pile the meringue thickly over the cake.
5. 5
   Sprinkle with coconut or pecans.
6. 6
   Bake in a 300F oven until the meringue is lightly browned.
