¼ cup | cornstarch |
1.00 cup | finely-chopped fresh pineapple |
1.00 teaspoon | vanilla extract |

1 \N | and sliced |
1.00 pint | fresh blueberries; washed, stemmed |
1.00 pint | fresh raspberries |
1 \N | splash of grand marnier |
2.00 cup | flour |
1.00 pinch | salt |
6.00 tablespoon | butter |
½ cup | toasted sesame seeds |
2.00 \N | egg yolks |
¼ cup | ice water |
½ cup | sweetened whipped cream |
4.00 \N | fresh mint sprigs |
In a non-stick one-quart saucepan, combine ¾ cup of sugar and milk together. Bring the liquid to boiling point and scald the milk. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the remaining milk, egg yolks, and cornstarch together. Whisk until smooth. Temper the egg yolk mixture into the scalded milk. Bring the mixture up to a boil and cook for about 3 minutes or until the mixture is thick, stirring constantly.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh pineapple, vanilla and butter. Pour the filling into a glass bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly over the pastry cream. Cool completely and then chill completely. In a mixing bowl, combine all of the berries, ½ cup sugar and Grand Marnier. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Place the flour, remaining ½ cup of sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Using your hands, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal-like mixture. Add the sesame seeds and egg yolks. Mix well. Add enough water to make a dough. Lightly flour a flat surface. Roll out the dough, about ⅛-inch thick. Cut the dough into 4-inch rounds, yielding 20 rounds. Place the rounds on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove and cool on a wire rack. To assemble, spread ¼ cup of the filling evenly over 16 wafers. Stack four wafers on top of each other and top each with the remaining 4 wafers. Spoon the macerated berries in the center of each plate. Place the mille feuilles in the center of the berries. Garnish with the whipped cream and mint. This recipe yields 4 servings.
