- 2 c. Lowfat milk
- 4 x Egg yolks
- 1/4 c. Cornstarch
- 1 c. Finely-minced fresh pineapple
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp. Butter
- 1 pt Fresh strawberries washed, stemmed, and sliced
- 1 pt Fresh blueberries washed, stemmed

- 2 c. Flour

- 6 Tbsp. Butter
- 1/2 c. Toasted sesame seeds

- 1/4 c. Ice water

Directions
- In a non-stick one-qt saucepan, combine 3/4 c. of sugar and lowfat milk together. Bring the liquid to boiling point and scald the lowfat milk. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the remaining lowfat milk, egg yolks, and cornstarch together. Whisk till smooth. Temper the egg yolk mix into the scalded lowfat milk. Bring the mix up to a boil and cook for about 3 min or possibly till the mix is thick, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh pineapple, vanilla and butter. Pour the filling into a glass bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly over the pastry cream. Cold completely and then refrigeratecompletely.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all of the berries, 1/2 c. sugar and Grand Marnier. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
- Place the flour, remaining 1/2 c. of sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Using your hands, work the butter into the flour mix till it resembles a coarse meal-like mix. Add in the sesame seeds and egg yolks. Mix well. Add in sufficient water to make a dough. Lightly flour a flat surface. Roll out the dough, about 1/8-inch thick. Cut the dough into 4-inch rounds, yielding 20 rounds. Place the rounds on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 15 min, or possibly till lightly golden brown. Remove and cold on a wire rack.
- To assemble, spread 1/4 c. of the filling proportionately over 16 wafers. Stack four wafers on top of each other and top each with the remaining 4 wafers. Spoon the macerated berries in the center of each plate. Place the mille feuilles in the center of the berries. Garnish with the whipped cream and mint.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
