Maron Glace.... such delicious memories of eating in France and Italy. Chestnuts are just unusual and delicious. Sweet, savory..... I'll take them.
Now making Mont Blanc ahead of time for a party required a substitution of the meringue for a genoise. All well and good, but I still think I would have preferred these with meringue as intended. My European friend thoroughly appreciated the chestnut cream- as expected.
This was not the finished product. I thought they were ugly in the recipe photo.... and not too surprisingly came out equally ugly when I copied it. I thought that using the star tip for piping would improve them, but the covering of the other chestnut mixture just covered the design.
