Ingredients Serving: 2

  1. 5 Wonton Sheets 4x4 squares"
  2. 1 tablespoon Melted Butter
  3. Icing Sugar for dusting
  4. Pastry Cream ingredients:
  5. 300 ml milk
  6. 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  7. 3 large egg yolks
  8. 50 grams granulated white sugar
  9. 20 grams flour
  10. 20 grams cornflour
  11. 1 tbsp Baileys Irish Cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with butter paper, separate the wonton sheet gently.
  2. Place individual sheets on the paper, brush lightly with melted butter, dust a bit of icing sugar and bake at 200 degree Celsius for 2-3 minutes or till very light brown. Remove (gently) and cool on a rack.
  3. Mix the sugar and egg yolks together in a glass bowl. Sift the flour and cornflour together and add to the egg mixture, use a whisk till it’s a smooth paste.
  4. Bring the milk to a boil in a pan, remove as it is about to boil and add to the egg mix, keep whisking to cool it and to make sure it doesn’t curdle, if it does, then strain the whole custard once you have blended the milk with the eggs mix
  5. Add the vanilla essence and pour the custard into another pan and cook over low heat till it comes to a boil, keep whisking constantly till it thickens.
  6. Remove from the fire and blend in the Bailey’s if you plan to use any.
  7. To assemble, place a baked wonton sheet on the serving plate, top lightly with the pastry cream, use a frosting spatula or the side of a wide knife to spread it.
  8. Layer the second wonton sheet in your hand and place over the base, do this with four layers, sprinkle icing sugar over the top layer.
  9. Top with a dollop of more pastry cream, dot with whole cherries and serve.
