What could be better than enjoying a Turrón parfait on your terrace on a Sunday afternoon? Today Maria Simona brings you a simple and delicious recipe for this frozen dessert.
Ingredients
- 200 g Turrón (Spanish nougat)
- 400 ml liquid cream
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 3 egg whites
- 30 g powdered sugar
- Candied cherries or slivered almonds for decoration (optional)
Instructions
- In a blender or with a pestle, grind the Turrón to a fine powder.
- In a bowl, whip the cream with the 3 tablespoons of sugar until stiff.
- Add the vanilla extract and Turrón powder to the whipped cream. Mix gently to incorporate ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Gradually add the powdered sugar, continuing to beat until you obtain a meringue consistency.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the Turrón mixture. Use a spatula, moving up and down to prevent the foam from falling back.
- Pour the mixture into individual molds or a large container. Cover with cling film and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- When the parfait has set, remove from the freezer and let stand at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
- You can decorate the Turrón parfait with candied cherries or slivered almonds to add a visual and textural touch.
- Serve the parfait chilled and enjoy!
