Peking Dust

Ingredients:
nuts, chestnuts, european, dried, peeled
salt, table
sugars, granulated
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
sugars, powdered
vanilla extract

Directions:
Make a slit on the flat side of each chestnut.
Place in boiling water and simmer for 40-45 minutes.
Drain them and allow them to cool.
Shell them making sure to get all of the 'meat' and you need to remove ALL of the skin.
Grind them into a fine powder.
Stir in salt and sugar.
Whip your cream to your desired thickness and fold in your caster sugar and vanilla, if using this.
To Serve:
Either form the chestnut mixture into one large mound or form smaller mounds in individual serving bowls.
