Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Soak the chestnuts for 12 hours in cold water and drain (dried chestnuts are used because they have a stronger flavour than fresh ones).
  2. 2
    Cook with the milk for 20 minutes on a very low heat and then make a puree.
  3. 3
    Mix together with the softened butter, sugar, vanilla sugar and the grappa.
  4. 4
    (brandy, if you don't have grappa).
  5. 5
    Add the egg yolks one by one, mixing well.
  6. 6
    Leave to cool then fold in the beaten egg whites.
  7. 7
    Put the mixture into a buttered and sugared souffle dish and bake at 180-190 oC for about 40 minutes.
  8. 8
    Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately, with a little whipped cream, if desired.
