Gesztenyepüré is a sweet treat consisting of puréed, sweetened chestnuts topped with whipped cream. It is very popular in Hungary, but it was first discovered in an Italian cookbook from 1475. This dish is made by mixing chestnut purée, sugar, and rum together and then placing it in a ricer. Besides whipped cream, it can also be topped with cocoa powder and cherries. The original version was later adapted into a traditional, seasonal French dessert named Mont Blanc, while Hungarians introduced their variation in the 18th century.
