Description
A nostalgic recipe — who doesn't remember those little nut-shaped cookies (or wafers) filled with sweetened condensed milk that mom used to make for birthdays? We have grown up, but we still miss this simple dessert. Like Proust's madeleines, it takes us straight back to childhood. Alex Johnson has slightly adapted the recipe, preserving that same taste. He mixed the sweetened condensed milk with a cloud of cream, making the filling softer and enhancing the contrast with the crispy wafers. Additionally, he included a strawberry sauce to serve with the wafers. Sweetened condensed milk, strawberries, crispy wafer shells — an absolutely winning combination. The recipe was shared by Alex Johnson, chef at a popular American restaurant.
