Cake Napoleon or mille-feuille is a French pastry traditionally, made up of layers of puff pastry alternating with layers of pastry cream. I tried Cake Napoleon in a local brunch place here called – Towercafe and I have been a fan of this dessert since then. I used to think it must be one complicated cake to make until yesterday wen I actually made up my mind to give it a try.
Ingredients:
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp flour
2 cups milk (divided)
1 tbsp orange liqueur. I used Grand Mernier. Skip this step if you wish.
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 oz cool whip, thawed
1 package puff pastry. I used Pepperidge Farm’s pastry sheets.
