TULIPES (FREE-FORM DESSERT CUPS)



Tulipes (Free-form dessert cups) image

Provided by Craig Claiborne And Pierre Franey

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield 10 - 12 free-form dessert cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 tablespoons butter, plus butter for brushing the baking sheet
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup sifted flour
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 egg whites

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Put the six tablespoons of butter and the sugar into a mixing bowl, and start beating with a wire whisk or with an electric mixer. Beat until light and creamy.
  • Beat in the flour and vanilla.
  • Beat the egg whites until they stand in soft peaks. Fold the whites into the creamed mixture.
  • Select a baking sheet large enough to fit neatly in the oven. Brush the top surface with butter.
  • Using a mixing or other round bowl that is five inches in diameter, invert it onto the baking sheet and trace a circle in the light butter coating. Make as many separately traced circles as possible; the maximum may be two or three to a sheet.
  • Spoon one or two tablespoons of the batter into the center of each circle, one at a time. Carefully smooth the batter into one very thin layer, less than an eighth of an inch thick, to cover the circle. Continue filling the circles.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake three to three and one-half minutes, watching carefully that the pastries do not burn. Remove the sheet from the oven and immediately lift up the circles one at a time, carefully shaping them while hot (place the brown bottom side up) in the center of a cup (a regular-shape rounded coffee cup or Chinese soup or rice bowl is suitable). When pushed into the center, the edges should be neatly fluted or ruffled. Let cool and remove from the mold.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your dessert cups. Use fresh, ripe fruit and high-quality chocolate.
  • Follow the Recipe Carefully: This recipe is designed to be easy to follow, but it's important to measure your ingredients accurately and follow the instructions carefully.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can make the dessert cups tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Dessert Cups Until They Are Set: The dessert cups should be baked until they are set in the center. Insert a toothpick into the center of a dessert cup; if it comes out clean, the dessert cup is done.
  • Let the Dessert Cups Cool Completely: Before you fill them with the mousse, let the dessert cups cool completely. This will help to prevent the mousse from melting.
  • Use a Piping Bag to Fill the Dessert Cups: This will help you to create a smooth, even layer of mousse.
  • Chill the Dessert Cups: After you fill them with mousse, chill the dessert cups for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help the mousse to set.
