Berry And Peach Napoleons With White Chocolate Mousse
- 2 1/4 tsp powdered gelatin
- 7 oz white chocolate, chopped
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 3/4 cup, plus 3 tbsp sugar
- 3 medium eggs
- 1 cup, plus 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup red currants or raspberries
- 2/3 cup white currants or blueberries
- 2 None white peaches, pit removed, sliced
- None None Mint leaves, to decorate
- Sprinkle the gelatin into a bowl containing 1/4 cup cold water and set aside for 5 mins. Pour gelatin into a saucepan and melt slowly over very low heat. Do not let the mixture boil. Allow to cool slightly.
- Melt the chocolate in a large bowl over a pan of simmering water. Remove from the heat. Whip 2 3/4 cups of the cream until soft peaks form, then gradually fold into the chocolate. Gradually stir in the melted gelatin. Level the surface and chill for at least 3 hours.
- Meanwhile, to make the wafers, preheat the oven to 325u0b0F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Using an electric hand mixer, whisk the sugar with the remaining cream and the eggs. Gradually whisk in the flour.
- Spoon the mixture onto the baking sheets, to make twenty-four 3 inch circles. Bake for 15-20 mins until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on wire racks.
- Using 3 wafers per 'tower', layer the wafers with the white chocolate mousse, berries, and peach slices. Finish each with a spoonful of mousse and a mixture of the fruits. Decorate with the mint leaves.
