(Beurree de Creme avec Sucre d'Érable)

Maple sugar grated from a hard block gives this simple dessert its sweet crunch, and thick, heavy cream gives it its lush pillowiness. In La Beauce, cream tends to be particularly rich; to make regular supermarket cream more substantial, we've whipped it a little bit.

Ingredients

  • 34 cup heavy cream
  • 4 thick slices of hearty white country bread
  • 4 tbsp. coarsely grated maple sugar
