Ingredients
- 1000 grams (2.2 lb) Chestnut
- 1000 ml (33.81 floz) Water For the chestnut
- 50 grams (1.76 oz) White Sugar – Regular Sugar – Granulated Sugar
- 2 cups Water For the sugar
- 3 tbsp Vanilla Extract
Topping
- 150 ml (5.07 floz) Whipped Cream For cake
Instructions
In a large pot, place the chestnuts, and fill it up with water. Then cook them for 2 hours until soft.
Once the chestnuts are fully cooked and softened, it's time to clean. Grab a paring knife and peel them. If you find it difficult to peel the chestnuts, leave them cooking for another 20 minutes.
After cleaning the chestnuts, place them on a cutting board and chop them into small pieces. To make some space for yourself, put the chopped chestnuts into a small mixing bowl.
When you're ready with cutting them, grab a large pot again and turn on the heat, wait for the pot to warm up; once it's warm, add the sugar and wait for it to melt. Once it's all melted, pour in the vanilla extract and water, and wait for it to boil.
Once it's boiling, add the chopped chestnuts to the pot, cook them for a few seconds, then grab an immersion blender, and start slowly, mixing until it’s a smooth puree.
When your puree is ready, there's only one step left to complete; place the puree into a mixing bowl (cover it) or a food storage container, and place it in the refrigerator until it cools down.
