In Switzerland we call it Vermicelles, it’s made out of cooked and pureed chestnuts, served with whipped cream and meringues (no idea how to translate this, it’s baked egg-whites with sugar). It’s a typical autumn dessert.
Looking it up it’s seemingly known as Mont Blanc abroad, though i’ve never heard it called that here.

Meringue is universal. Northern Europe eats sweet chestnuts but I have never seen chestnut desserts in North America.
