  • 3
    Add the eggs slowly one by one and mix on low speed.
  • 4
    Add flour and keep mixing for 3 minutes to ensure all ingredients are combined well.

    In a tray, line with parchment paper and pour the sponge mixture in an even layer. Bake for 6 minutes.

    Once cooled, cut into 7cm rounds and set aside.
  • 7
    Soak the gelatin in ice water until softened.
  • 8
    In a small pot, boil the heavy cream and milk and then add the gelatin and mix until melted. Leave to cool until it reaches 23 degrees.

    Melt the white chocolate in microwave and then add the NESTLÉ® Sweetened Condensed Milk® and pistachio paste. Combine both the mixtures together and leave to cool in the chiller for 30 minutes.
