Zubereitung
Boil chestnuts in water until soft and peel them.
Simmer on a low flame with milk, sugar, vanilla pod and a pinch of salt until the chestnuts have absorbed all the liquid. Stir until creamy and allow the mixture to cool down.
Add rum and press the chestnut cream directly onto the serving dish using a potato press. If you are able, try to create a mountain.
Whip the cream with the icing sugar until stiff and decorate your “mountain” with it. You can decide how “snowy” your mountain should be!
Serve cold.
Notizen
As an alternative to fresh chestnuts, you can use 200 g chestnut flour or pre-cooked chestnuts, which saves a lot of time. If you are a chocolate lover, you can stir around 20 g of unsweetened cocoa powder or dark chocolate pieces into the chestnut cream.
