Kiwi Tartlets
Report
Kiwi Tartlets, an easy dessert full of flavour. Super simple, with a rich buttery pastry and a vanilla custard filling, then topped with delicious kiwi, these mini tarts are a big hit with the whole family. Perfect in the cold weather when kiwis are in season, but also as delicious all year round, my kiwi tartlets are a delicious dessert for any party or celebration.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. (350 Fahrenheit)
- Sift the flour in a large bowl.
- Cut the cold butter in small cubes, then add it to the flour and rub it in with your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add the icing sugar and milk and knead the dough into a ball.
- Cover the bowl with clingfilm and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Transfer the dough to the working surface and use a rolling pin to roll the dough into an approximately ½cm (¼ inch) thickness.
- Carefully roll it around the pin, then line 2 tart tins (mine are 11cm, or 4.33 inch), pressing gently around the edges and the base.
- Cover with baking sheet/kitchen foil, then fill the tart tins with ceramic baking beans. This will prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the sheet and ceramic baking beans and bake for a further 5 minutes.
- Set aside to cool.
- To make the filling, add the heavy cream to a bowl, mix in the eggs, sift in the icing sugar and add the vanilla essence. Mix well.
- Fill the 2 pastries with the cream mixture, then bake for 10-15 minutes until the cream is set and firm to touch.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely.
- Decorate with kiwi.
