◾Brazo de Mercedes is a classic Filipino dessert which literally means "Mercedes' Arm " or "Arm of Our Lady of Mercy"
◾It's a cake roll made of soft meringue with custard filling dusted with powdered sugar
◾Roll the meringue while still warm so it won't crack
◾The custard filling can have a variety of flavors like lemon & ube but you may definitely make it without the additional flavors
◾The purpose of the cornstarch in the custard is to act as a thickener; the cornstarch in the meringue prevents it from weeping or becoming too watery if placed in the fridge
◾You can make brazo cupcakes using the same recipe if making it into a roll is not for you
◾DIFFERENT OVENS VARY IN TEMPERATURE SO PLEASE ADJUST ACCORDINGLY
