Preparation
Crumble the crispy crêpes and use them to fill the channel of the Micro Pro Grill.
Melt the chopped chocolate and butter (Microplus 1 l jug) for about 1 minute 30 seconds at 600 watts, then stir (kpt silicone spatula). If needed, heat again in 30-second intervals at 600 watts.
In a bowl (Mixing Bowl 3,2 l), whisk together the eggs, sweetened chestnut purée and sugar (beater stirrer). Add the flour and mix.
Pour in the melted chocolate while stirring to make a smooth mixture that is not foamy.
Pour the mixture into the centre of the Micro Pro Grill and cook for about 9 minutes at 900 watts, with the lid in the high position.
Leave to rest for about 15 minutes with the lid on, then uncover and allow to cool slightly before turning out. For a softer centre, reduce the cooking time by one minute.
Serve with a few pieces of candied chestnut (optional).
Variation: You can omit the sweetened chestnut purée by increasing the sugar to 90 g and reducing the flour to 105 g.
