A great dessert for the holiday buffet. Ingredients:
1/2 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
3 apple - peeled, cored, and chopped |
3/8 cup all-purpose flour |
3/8 cup chopped blanched almonds |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
3 tablespoons butter, chilled |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3 egg yolks |
3 tablespoons white sugar |
1/3 cup dry marsala wine |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix flour, almonds, 1/2 cup sugar, and cinnamon together. Add chilled butter and vanilla extract. Cut together with a pastry blender until small crumbs form.
2. Unfold pastry and cut into a 10 inch circle. Place on a large, ungreased baking sheet. Brush with melted butter or margarine. Arrange apples in the center of the pastry, leaving a 1/2 inch wide border of pastry. Spoon almond topping gently over the apples, being careful it doesn't spill over the edges of the pastry.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
4. Place egg yolks and 3 tablespoons sugar in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Beat mixture constantly with a portable electric mixer. When foamy, add the marsala; continue to beat until the mixture begins to thicken. Do not overcook, or the mixture will curdle. Remove from heat. Serve warm over the apple crumble.
