Ingredients
1 pint (about 18) green or black figs, stemmed and quartered
1 pint mixed berries, such as red raspberries, golden raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries, large ones hulled and quartered
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier liqueur
Yellow Genoise Cake
Lemon Curd Filling
Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting
Preparation
Combine figs and berries in a small bowl. Sprinkle with granulated sugar and liqueur. Let sit, tossing gently once or twice, until juicy, about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Slice cake into twelve 3-inch squares (you will have a few extra squares), and toast in the oven until golden brown in color, 6 to 8 minutes.
Arrange half the toasted cake squares on 6 serving plates. Spoon the lemon curd and the fruit over the cakes. Cover each with another slice of cake, dust with confectioners’ sugar, and serve.
