This is a wonderful dessert! I found this originally on . Didn't allow for baking time for the shells; nor did I allow for cooling time for the pudding.
Ingredients:
4 frozen puff pastry shells
2/3 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
2 cups skim milk
2 egg yolks
2 teaspoons unsalted butter or 2 teaspoons unsalted margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 lb pineapple chunk, drained
toasted & chopped macadamia nuts (garnish)
Directions:
1. Bake puff pastry shells, according to package directions.
2. Combine sugar, cornstarch, flour, and salt in a heavy non-reactive saucepan.
3. Whisk in milk and egg yolks.
4. Whisk constantly over medium high heat until mixture just comes to a boil.
5. Immediately remove from heat.
6. Stir in butter and vanilla, until butter is melted.
7. Transfer to a serving bowl.
8. Press plastic wrap over pudding surface to prevent skin from forming.
9. Cool slightly.
10. Spoon pineapple into prepared pastry shells; top with pudding and chopped macadamia nuts.
