Mille Grazia

Most people who know me now would not believe that when I was very young I was very quiet.My mum said I would sit for hours and just observe everything that was going on around me. Today while I am still very observent of what is going on around me, I am more than making up for being quiet in those early years. I'm a talker and there's no denying that. I am lucky to sit beside some great people in work but sometimes I do feel for them having me chatting away beside them all the time.
In order to keep myself in the good books with these poor souls I like to bring in some of my cooked goodies. For a while now I've been the only one bringing in cakes, buns and treats. But the other day as I was making my morning cuppa in the kitchen I was treated to one of my friends cakes. She's got a new man and she's been keen to impress him with her culinary delights. Since I've been treating her she decided to repay me with one of the desserts she has been wooing her man with.
She got the recipe for this mille feuille from here. It tasted wonderful and I just love a recipe that tastes this good and only takes a few minutes to prepare so I had a go at making it myself. I cut each serving into three to make each piece a little bit more managable to eat.

Audrey, I would be more than happy to sit and listen to you all day if you brought me these Mille Grazia. They look delicious!
I've just discovered your blog and it was nice this morning in Paris in the cold, to spend few minutes reading you. No strawberry for the moment...
Wow, they look fantastic:)
For a moment I thought it was strawbs and cream on layers of pavlova... omg can you imagine... a thin layer of pav; chewy and meranguey, then a layer of cream and topped with stawbs. Then repeat 2-3 times.
