  1. Preparing the bath

    Heat the oven to 150 °C, conventional oven setting (no fan). Line the bottom and walls of the solid mold with paper 3 cm larger. Heat water for the bain-marie.

  2. The cream

    Gently cook fresh cheese, butter and milk in a bain-marie, then smooth. Out of heat, add the yolks, 30 g of sugar, vanilla and yuzu. Stir in flour and sifted starch.

  3. The breath

    Turn whites into soft snow by adding the 60 g of sugar gradually. The beak must bend. Stir in the mixture three times, without crushing the foam.

  4. Cooking

    Pour into the mold. Place it in the large dish and pour 2 cm of hot water around. Cook 60 to 70 minutes; the center should be taken and a skewer spring without wet paste. Turn off, open and leave for 20 minutes.

  5. The Cloud

    Remove from the bath, let cool for 1 hour, unmold gently. With melted chocolate, make only two large eyes and a small mouth on top. Film the slight vibration by gently moving the dish. Cool before storage.

Conservation. Keep covered in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours. Leave for 10 minutes before serving.

Baking tips for this recipe

Substitutions and variations

To replace a main ingredient, choose another sheet designed with the one you want to use. Changing the proportions of fat, sugar or liquid can change the hold of the dessert.

Keep the type of chocolate provided for the structure or ganache. Switching from dark chocolate to white chocolate changes the balance: the quantities do not transpose directly.
