Choco/Orange Millefeuille
- 1 1/3 pounds puff pastry
- 5 egg yolks
- 1 1/8 cups caster sugar
- 1 3/16 teaspoons gelatin
- 3 1/3 cups whipping cream
- 9/16 cup white chocolate
- 6 7/16 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 5/8 cup milk chocolate
- 2 3/4 cups mascarpone cheese
- powdered sugar
- Heat oven to 480F.
- Spread the dough thinly on a floured work surface.
- Transfer the dough in 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake the first sheet.
- It will rise and turn golden.
- After 5 minutes, cover it with parchment paper in the oven and place a second baking sheet (or a plate) on top off it to prevent it from rising. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Take out of the oven, let cool slightly, and cut out rectangles with scissors.
- Do the same for the second tray of dough.
- Turn on the broiler.
- Sprinkle the rectangles with sugar and caramelize them quickly under the broiler. Watch carefully, they can burn easily.
- In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar.
- Soften gelatin in cold water.
- In a saucepan, boil the cream, and remove from heat.
- Add the egg yolks to the pan and heat slowly until the mixture thickens (up to 185F)
- Divide the cream in 2 equal portions.
- In one of the bowls, add the white chocolate (broken in small pieces), then add the orange juice and mix.
- In the another bowl, add the milk chocolate (broken in small pieces) and stir.
- Let the two bowls cool at room temperature then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Beat the mascarpone and separate in 2 equal portions. Add 1 portion to each of the bowls and whip the mixtures.
- You can use a food processor or stand mixer for a creamier result.
- Put each cream in a pastry bag with a fluted tip and top the caramelized dough rectangles with the cream.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
