The recipe,
step by step

  1. 1

    For the macaroon shell

    Make two 15 cm disks for the "lids" with an 8 cm hole in the centre.

  2. 2

    For the sablé breton

    Roll out to a thickness of 10 mm. Cook in a 16 cm diameter cake ring at 160°C (320°F) until golden brown, oven door open.

  3. 3

    For the emulsified white chocolate ganache with vanilla

    Bring the Elle & Vire® Sublime, Cream with Mascarponeto the boil with the half vanilla pod. Make a ganache with the white chocolate. 

  4. 4

    Vanilla mascarpone filling

    Infuse the vanilla pods, split and scraped, in the Elle & Vire® Sublime, Cream with Mascarpone. Strain and bring to the boil. Pour in the sugar and egg yolks. Cook at 85°C (185°F). Remove from the heat, add the gelatine, pre-swollen in water, and blend. Leave to rest in the fridge for 12 hours at 4°C (39.2°F). Beat everything together using the whisk attachment and shape into 12 cm diameter 1.5 cm high disks.

    Assembly

    Soak the underneath of the macaroon shells (the "lids") with the vanilla syrup. Using a 14 mm piping nozzle pipe balls of emulsified white chocolate ganache around the edge of each sablé breton. Pipe on a light layer of vanilla mousse to secure the mascarpone cream filling, and pipe on more vanilla mousse. Place the lid on top. Put a little disk of chocolate between each ball.  Pipe the mousse decoration into the centre of the macaroon shell.
