Segovia Layer Cake

• 8 eggs
• 2 egg yolks
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 2/3 cups wheat flour
• 5/8 cup rice flour
• 1 3/4 tablespoons butter melted
• 2 tablespoons water at room temperature
• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 7/8 cup water
• 1 cup liquor such as a sweet wine
• 7 egg yolks
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 5 1/16 tablespoons water
• 4 9/16 cups ground almonds
• 4 1/8 cups powdered sugar
• 2 egg whites

1. Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius.
2. Beat the eggs, yolks, and sugar together until white.
3. Sift together the wheat and rice flours and mix into the egg mixture. Add the butter, mixing well.
4. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper, brush with oil, and fill with the batter.
5. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and turn out onto a rack to cool. Cut into three strips.
6. Place the sugar and water into a saucepan to make the syrup. Bring to a boil and cook for 7 minutes. Add the liquor and set aside, keeping warm.
7. For the yolk topping, boil the water and sugar together until it forms a fine thread when dipped in cold water. Stir in the yolks, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat, cover, and set aside.
8. For the marzipan, mix the almonds and sugar together and add the egg whites little by little.
9. Knead on a flat surface sprinkled with powdered sugar until a smooth dough is formed. Cover in plastic wrap and set aside.
10. Place 1 of the cake layers onto a dish and brush several times with the hot syrup until soaked through. Drizzle with a third of the yolk topping. Repeat with the other 2 cake layers.
11. Roll the marzipan out until 3 mm thick. Place over the cake and press and smooth the marzipan into place to cover it completely on all sides. Trim any extra with a knife.
12. Sprinkle the entire cake with powdered sugar.
