Comment préparer A Simply Grand Napoleon Dessert
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 sheet (14.1 oz box) of refrigerated puff pastry to 1/8 inch thickness.
- Use a 4-5 inch cookie cutter or knife to cut six circles.
- Gently transfer the pastry circles to the prepared baking sheet. Whisk together 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon of water; brush the pastry circles with the egg wash.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastry circles are light golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely. Gently transfer the cooled circles to an airtight container and set aside.
- In a fine-mesh sieve, combine 1 cup crushed pineapple and 1/2 cup chopped orange segments. Let drain until no more liquid drips.
- Transfer the drained fruit to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier, mix well, and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
- Return the fruit mixture to the sieve and press with the flat side of a spoon to remove any remaining liquid. Discard or reserve the liquid.
- In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 cup coconut milk, 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier, the drained pineapple/orange mixture, and 2 ounces shredded coconut until smooth and creamy.
- Refrigerate the cheese mixture until ready to assemble.
- To assemble: Use a sharp knife to carefully split each of the 6 pastry circles in half.
- Using a pastry brush, brush the inside surface of 6 pastry circle halves and the top surface of the other 6 halves with 2 tablespoons of Grand Marnier.
- Gently spread the mascarpone mixture evenly over 6 pastry circle halves. Top with another pastry circle half to create a two-layered base. Repeat for all 6 bases.
- Top each Napoleon with a remaining pastry circle half.
- Garnish the top of each dessert with orange zest and the remaining 2 ounces of shredded coconut.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
