French know dessert better than anyone! Look at this luscious praline chocolate millefeuille! All those layers, that intense praline aroma and the smoothest milk chocolate ganache make up a dessert like no other!
Millefeuille is not an easy dessert and only a few have the courage to tackle it. But once you do give it a try, you understand why French love it so much! The word itself means a thousand leaves or layers and it gets its name from all those layers of the puff pastry. But apart from that, there is no rule on what a millefeuille should actually contain in terms of filling. My version uses praline because it’s one of my all-time favorite flavors, but feel free to have fun and use your favorite, from vanilla to adding fruits between the layers.
