Coeur A La Creme

This Valentines day (or any day for that matter), make your sweet heart a traditional French dessert: Coeur a la Creme with Strawberry Sauce. Better than the heart shaped mold it's prepared in is the explosion of Creamy, lemony flavors! Surrounding this masterpiece, as if the Creamy Heart of goodness wasn't enough, is a sea of strawberry sauce.

Step 1 Getting Started

To make this dessert you'll need some special equipment and a few ingredients.

Coeur A La Creme Mold (I've found it cheapest on Amazon ; however if you don't mind a dome shape you can use a large sieve)

1 vanilla bean, scraped of its seeds or 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon lemon juice

My French class made this one day. We used a rasberry sauce instead of strawberry.
