How to Make Mont Blanc Dessert (Monte Bianco Recipe)
===========
Considered by many to be the most delicious chestnut dessert, Monte Bianco (or Mont Blanc) is a famous dessert in France and Italy. Since chestnuts are abundant in the mountainous regions of the Alps, the star ingredient is, you guessed it: CHESTNUTS!
Traditionally, the sweet chestnut puree is pressed through a ricer to create a mound of chestnut that looks like pasta. In our recipe, we are keeping it simple (easier for those without a ricer). You'll simply use a common pastry bag to pipe the chestnut puree into a mountain shape, then decorate it with whipped cream!
If you don't want to make a freestanding dessert like we do in the video, use the same recipe to make a 'Mont Blanc' cream pie!
