INGREDIENTS (to make and fill) 12-14 tartlets):
PASTRY:
- 9oz plain (all purpose) flour,
- 5oz butter,
- 2.5oz caster (superfine) sugar,
- tablespoon milk.*just put all the ingredients in a food processor and blitz for 1 minute until it just comes together - bake at 160 degrees for 10-15 minutes*
FILLING:
- 50g cream cheese,
- 60ml double cream (I was using Elmlea which is a long life cream) and 2oz icing (confectioners/powdered) sugar,
- flavouring of your choice
FRUIT:
I used blueberries, strawberries and blackberries (use what's in season and to your taste. Quantity depends on design you choose.
IMPORTANT note about my pastry - In this video I doubled the quantity of pastry that I made so that's why I halved it before rolling it out. To make around 12-14 pastry tartlets in my bun tins, I would make one quantity of pastry (9oz flour, 5oz butter, 2.5oz sugar). If you double the recipe, you will be able to make 24-28 tartlets.
