Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 7-10 Tbsp Pour 4 pers
  • 400 g de fromage blanc
  • 50 cl full cream (very cold)
  • 25 g de sucre glace
  • 220 g de sucre en poudre
  • 7 egg yolks
  • 7 gelatine leaves (14 g)
  • 2 cl of Cointreau (or Grand-Marnier)
  • 400 g d'abricots (ou nectarines)

Directions

  1. 1

    1 Rehydrate the gelatin in a bowl of cold water. Prepare a syrup by cooking in a saucepan, 120 g caster sugar and 2 tbsp. water. In a bowl, beat the eggs and pour the syrup over them. Whisk until cold.

  2. 2

    2 Whip the liquid cream into a whipped cream, incorporating the icing sugar at the end of the whipping process. Split and scrape the vanilla pod, mix the seeds with the fromage blanc and Cointreau.

  3. 3

    3 Drain and melt the gelatine for a few seconds in the microwave. Mix it with the cottage cheese, whisking. Stir in the whipped cream, then the egg yolks. Divide into 4 individual moulds. Cover and place in a cool place for at least 4 hours.

  4. 4

    4 In a saucepan, bring to the boil 1 glass of water with the remaining sugar, 2 minutes. Wash, dry and open the apricots, remove the stones. Plunge them into the syrup and cook for 20 minutes simmering. Drain them and let cool.

    5 Unmould the desserts, cover them with the poached fruit and serve chilled.

    - You can also decorate your dessert with fine biscuits (Florentine type or round cat's tongues) or a caramel tile.
