Instructions
  1. Heat the oven at 355°F Grease a 9 inches round cake pan.
  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan then let it cold. In a bowl whisk together yolks and brown sugar, beat until frothy. Pour in the butter and whisk again then sift in the flour, the almond meal, salt and almond extract. Stir just enough to eliminate all the lumps.
  3. In another bowl beat egg whites, when fluffy add cane sugar, little by little, until you have a smoothy and shiny meringue. Fold in the meringue into the cake batter, then pour the batter into the cake pan.
  4. Bake for 30- 40 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven, let cool, then remove the cake from the pan.
  5. To prepare the caramel: bring milk cream and dark brown sugar to a boil then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 40 minutes. It is ready when it sticks to a spoon.
  6. Let the caramel cool a little but not too much or it will be to thick to be spread on the cake. Cover the cake with the caramel and decorate with lingonberries.

Instructions
For the ice cream:
  1. Put the milk in a sauce pan with sugar and opened vanilla pod. Let it simmer until sugar is melted, let it cool and store it into the fridge.
  2. Whip the milk cream then add milk mixture in it, stirring slowly. At this time, if you have an ice maker, pour the mixture in it and let it go until the ice cream is done. Store into the freezer and mix it by hand or with the ice cream makerbefore serving it if you need. If you don't have an ice cream maker just pour everything in a bowl, store into the freezer and mix it every 30 minutes or so. It needs hours to get hard so don't worry if it's still soft after half a day. Just let it sit into the fridge and mix sometimes.
For the caramel sauce:
  1. Put sugar and butter in a sauce pan, let it cook until it has a gold- brown colour. Pay attention it turns black quickly! Add heavy cream stirring until the sauce thickens and cover the spoon.
  2. When the ice cream is ready serve it with caramel sauce on top. Don't use hot caramel sauce as the ice cream melts quickly on its own, just keep the sauce cold or room temperature.
