8 eggs, separated
1 cup sugar, divided
1 cup (100 grams) shredded coconut or ground walnuts
3 tablespoons matzo meal
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons rum flavoring
1 cup milk
2 ounces (50 grams) butter
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided

1 (250-milliliter) container whipping cream
Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius) and grease a 10-inch (26-centimeter) round pan.
Beat egg whites with 1/2 cup sugar until stiff and shiny. Set aside.
Beat yolks with other 1/2 cup sugar. Fold both mixtures together.

Pour batter into a large greased pan and bake at 300–320 degrees Fahrenheit (150–160 degrees Celsius) for about half an hour.
Combine water and rum flavoring and drizzle over cake as soon as you take it out of the oven.
