Preparation

Gently fold through the powder mixture into the whipped egg whites.

Misérable butter cream

Bring the water with the vanilla pods to the boil and remove from the heat.

Leave to infuse for 10 minutes.

Strain and bring to the boil in a saucepan with the sugar.

Pour over half the egg yolks and mix well, Add the remaining egg yolks and heat together, all the while stirring with a spatula.

Do not allow the mixture to boil.

Once the mixture reaches a ‘nappage’ stage, remove from the heat and pour over into a large mixing bowl.

Whisk on a low speed to allow the mixture to cool.

Once the mixture has reached a temperature of approx.

30°C, gradually add the butter.

Mix until you have a glossy cream.

Assembly

Place a layer of dacquoise upside down and spread the misérable cream on top.
