Ingredients
Instructions
  1. 1

    To prepare the millefoglie with berries, start with the custard, one of the elements of the diplomat cream: put the gelatin in a bowl with cold water 1 and let it soak for about ten minutes. Meanwhile, heat the milk in a saucepan, flavoring it with the seeds of the vanilla pod 2 and the grated zest of the lemon 3; it should almost come to a boil.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, pour in the egg yolks and sugar 4, whisk with a whisk, then add the cornstarch 5 and mix again 6.

  3. 3

    Add the hot milk to the egg yolk mixture in 2 times 7, then transfer everything back to the saucepan 8 and let it simmer over low heat, stirring constantly with the whisk 9.

  4. 4

    When the cream has thickened, turn off the heat and incorporate the well-squeezed gelatin 10. Mix well to blend it evenly 11, then transfer the cream to a baking dish, cover with plastic wrap in contact and let it cool completely 12.

  5. 5

    While the cream is cooling, take care of the puff pastry: roll out the roll on the work surface and divide it into 2 rectangles 13, then prick with a fork 14. Transfer the puff pastries to a baking sheet with their parchment paper and sprinkle the entire surface with powdered sugar 15.

  6. 6

    Bake in a preheated fan oven at 170°C for about 10-15 minutes 16. After this time, take it out of the oven 17 and cover with another sheet of parchment paper 18.

  7. 7

    Place another baking sheet on top to apply pressure 19 and bake for another 10 minutes; in this way the puff pastry will not swell. Once golden, take it out of the oven and melt any remaining sugar with a blowtorch 20, then let it cool 21.

  8. 8

    Now pour the cream into a bowl and work with an electric mixer 22 until it is whipped, but not too much 23. Take the custard and soften it by mixing with a spatula 24.

  9. 9

    Incorporate the semi-whipped cream into the cream a little at a time 25, stirring gently from the bottom up so as not to deflate it 26. Transfer the diplomat cream obtained 27 into a piping bag without a nozzle.

  10. 10

    You are ready to assemble the millefoglie: place the first puff pastry on the serving plate and cover it with tufts of diplomat cream 28, then add half of the berries 29. Fill with a little more cream 30.

  11. 11

    Place the second puff pastry on top 31 and cover this too with tufts of cream 32, then distribute the other half of the berries 33.

  12. 12

    Finally, sprinkle with powdered sugar 34 and garnish with mint leaves 35. Your millefoglie with berries is ready to be served 36!
