This is a wonderful dessert! I found this originally on . Didn't allow for baking time for the shells; nor did I allow for cooling time for the pudding. Ingredients:
4 frozen puff pastry shells |
2/3 cup dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour |
1/8 teaspoon salt (optional) |
2 cups skim milk |
2 egg yolks |
2 teaspoons unsalted butter or 2 teaspoons unsalted margarine |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 lb pineapple chunk, drained |
toasted & chopped macadamia nuts (garnish) |
Directions:
1. Bake puff pastry shells, according to package directions. 2. Combine sugar, cornstarch, flour, and salt in a heavy non-reactive saucepan. 3. Whisk in milk and egg yolks. 4. Whisk constantly over medium high heat until mixture just comes to a boil. 5. Immediately remove from heat. 6. Stir in butter and vanilla, until butter is melted. 7. Transfer to a serving bowl. 8. Press plastic wrap over pudding surface to prevent skin from forming. 9. Cool slightly. 10. Spoon pineapple into prepared pastry shells; top with pudding and chopped macadamia nuts. |
