- Preparation: 60 min
- Cooking: 15 min
- Makes: 1 serving (44.1 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian, Low carb
- Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 15 g Flour, all-purpose
- 4.8 g Sugar
- 10 g Butter, unsalted, cold
- 2.7 g Egg yolks, raw
- 10 g Cream, heavy
- 0.4 g Cornstarch
- 0.2 g Vanilla extract
- 1 g Sugar, powdered
Method
- Rub the cold butter into the flour and most of the sugar, add a third of the egg yolk and quickly bring it together into a smooth dough. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
- For the vanilla cream, whisk the cream, the rest of the egg yolk and sugar and the cornstarch in a small pan and heat gently, whisking all the time, for 3-5 minutes, until it thickens and just bubbles. Stir in the vanilla, cover the surface and let it cool completely.
- Heat the oven to 200°C. Press two-thirds of the dough thinly into a heart-shaped tartlet tin, keeping the rest for the lid.
- Fill with the cold vanilla cream, cover with a thin lid of the remaining dough and press the edges together.
- Bake on a low shelf for 12-15 minutes, until pale golden.
- Let it cool in the tin for a few minutes, turn it out carefully and dust with icing sugar.
