Time 30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
4 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 eggs, separated
1/2 cup bourbon or brandy

Steps:

  • Place milk in a small saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Set aside for 5 minutes to soften and heat over low heat until dissolved. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, beat the cream with 1 cup of the sugar until firm peaks form when beaters are raised. Set aside.
  • Place egg yolks in a large bowl and gradually beat in remaining sugar. Beat at high speed several minutes, until mixture is thick and pale yellow. Stir in gelatin and bourbon. With a rubber spatula, fold in 1 1/84 of the cream to lighten the mixture; then fold in the remaining cream.
  • In another large bowl, with clean beaters, beat egg whites until soft peaks form when beaters are raised; fold into cream mixture. Line an 8-cup charlotte mold with ladyfingers (preferably homemade), spoon in the cream mixture and chill until set.

I'm not sure what happened, but my Charlotte Russe turned out a complete disaster. The sponge cake didn't rise properly, and the filling was lumpy and curdled. I'm very disappointed with this recipe.

This dessert was a huge disappointment. The sponge cake was dry and crumbly, and the filling was bland and tasteless. I followed the recipe exactly, but something went wrong. I won't be making this again.

I found this recipe to be a bit challenging, especially the part where I had to make the sponge cake. The filling was also a bit too runny for my liking. Overall, I think it needs some improvement.

This dessert was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still enjoyable. The sponge cake was light and fluffy, and the filling was creamy and smooth. I think it would be better if the filling had a bit less sugar.
