When I went to Monaco, I think I ate all of the eclairs the entire country had to offer. I am not exaggerating when I say that every bite felt like a divine, out-of-body experience. People in Europe really know how to make those eclairs, y\u2019all! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With such a memorable experience, I wanted to create something similar to what I had in Europe, but with the added twist of a fusion filling. (Are you even surprised?) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so, I give you these delicious Ras Malai Eclairs. This Indian fusion dessert recipe is just the thing for you if you like contrasting textures and rich flavors. Perfect for Valentine\u2019s Day \u2013 or really, any day at all \u2013\u00a0these eclairs feature a flaky, crispy eclair with a smooth, spongey, ras malai filling. In other words, you\u2019ll be doing a happy dance all day long with this beauty.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An eclair is pretty much a log-shaped donut. It has a soft, pillow-like donut texture mixed with the flakiness of a croissant. Of course, no donut would be complete without a glazed exterior! My favorite was caramel, but the choice is yours if you ever travel to Monaco, because the choices were endless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ras malai is a traditional Indian dessert made with spongy cheese disks soaked in sweet milk. It is a light, refreshing dessert that is often served at weddings or special occasions. If that sounds good to you, you\u2019ll definitely also love my Ras Malai Ice Cream<\/a> recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love both ras malai and eclairs because they are so satisfying, especially after a big or spicy meal, like pasta, noodle, and rice dishes<\/a> or Indian entrees<\/a>. If I haven\u2019t convinced you enough yet, this recipe is so simple and takes about 30 minutes (baking aside).<\/p>\n\n\n
