Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make Mille-feuille cake with raspberries at home? Prepare your ingredients. The fattier the sour cream, the tastier the cream will be. I have 10%. It also works great and is less caloric. Remove the dough from the freezer in advance to defrost. You can make your own homemade dough. You will find the recipes after the last step. Combine sugar and yolk and stir until smooth. It will be more convenient to do this immediately in a saucepan rather than in a separate bowl.

Step 2

Step 2
Stirring constantly, heat the mixture over low heat for 3-4 minutes until the sugar begins to dissolve.

Step 3

Step 3
Add sour cream and mix thoroughly until smooth.

Step 4

Step 4
Add flour and vanillin to the cream and mix thoroughly. Cook the mixture over low heat for about 3-4 minutes until thickened. Vanillin can be replaced with vanilla. Read how to do this correctly in a separate article at the link after the recipe.

Step 5

Step 5
The cream is ready when its consistency becomes thick enough and the groove from the spoon will be visible for a long time. This cream will keep its shape perfectly.

Step 6

Step 6
Cover the cream with cling film in contact so that it does not have time to air out.

Step 7

Step 7
Roll out the thawed puff pastry into a layer no more than two millimeters thick and cut into three strips lengthwise. The correct mille-feuille consists of exactly three layers of dough.

Step 8

Step 8
Place the dough on a preheated electric grill and fry for about 7 minutes on the sandwich program until golden brown. The exact time depends on the power of your device. Due to the fact that the dough is pre-rolled thin, it has time to quickly cook on the grill. Plus, since the electric grill grates press on the workpieces from both sides, the problem of excessive increase in puff pastry in volume is also solved.

Step 9

Step 9
Place the pieces on the grill at a distance of at least 2 centimeters to prevent them from sticking together. Mine are a little stuck to each other. If you don’t have an electric grill, bake the dough at 200 degrees in the oven until golden brown. The pieces should not rise much during baking. Therefore, place a sheet of parchment on top of the dough and press it down with another baking sheet, for example.

Step 10

Step 10
Place the cooled custard into a piping bag. The tip cut is one centimeter. Assemble the cake on a serving platter. Spread half of the cream onto the first layer of dough.

Step 11

Step 11
Lightly press the raspberries into the cream. Next, add another layer of dough and spread the second half of the cream and raspberries. Place the last layer of dough on top. Decorate the cake before serving with a few raspberries, powdered sugar and any nut shavings. I have almond flakes. The layers should not have time to become saturated with cream, so assemble the cake just before guests arrive. Bon appetit!
