Mille-Feuille Cake: The Creamy and Delicious Dessert You Need to Try

Directions

1. Make the Custard Cream:
   • Heat the milk with the split vanilla pod to infuse the flavor.
   • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar and corn starch until well combined.
   • Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the egg yolk mixture, stirring constantly until thickened.
   • Remove from heat and stir in the butter. Allow the cream to cool.
2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
   • Roll out the puff pastry and divide it into three equal rectangles.
   • Poke holes in each rectangle with a fork to prevent puffing.
   • Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
3. Make the Icing:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine egg whites with icing sugar and lemon juice. Whisk until you achieve a smooth consistency.
4. Decorate:
   • Spread the icing on one of the baked puff pastry rectangles and drizzle with melted chocolate.
5. Assemble the Mille-Feuille:
   • Layer the three rectangles of puff pastry with custard cream in between each layer.
   • Finish with the decorated top layer and enjoy!
