Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup raspberry jam
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt. Add the cubed butter and use a pastry blender to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Cut into rectangles about 4 inches wide and 6 inches long.
- Place the rectangles on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until smooth.
- To assemble the mille-feuille, spread a layer of raspberry jam on each pastry rectangle, followed by a layer of whipped cream and a sprinkle of melted chocolate.
- Repeat the layers two more times, finishing with a layer of whipped cream and melted chocolate on top. Garnish with fresh raspberries.
