Ingredients
Tartlet Shells:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water
Filling:
- 20 fresh strawberries diced
- 1 large ripe mango seed removed, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 can dulce de Leche 13.4 ounce
- fresh mint leaves if desired
Instructions
- In covered food processor, process flour, 1 tablespoon sugar and the salt with on-and-off pulse to mix. Add cold butter; pulse several times. Slowly add ice water, pulsing until dough holds together. Do not over mix.
- Place dough on lightly floured surface; gather dough into a ball. Wrap dough in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
- To make Filling, in medium bowl, gently toss strawberries, mango and 1 tablespoon sugar. Refrigerate.
- To assemble tartlets, heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12 to 15 (3-inch) tart pans with cooking spray.
- On floured surface, roll out dough with rolling pin. Cut dough into rounds slightly larger than pans. Press dough rounds in bottom and up side of each tart pan; trim any dough overhang. Place pans on cookie sheet.
- Bake on center oven rack 15 to 20 minutes or until shells are light golden brown. Place cookie sheet on cooling rack; cool shells in pans.
- Remove Tartlet Shells from pans. Spoon and spread dollop of dulce de leche in each shell. Add spoonful of strawberry-mango mixture to each. Garnish each with mint leaf.

Notes
- Dulce de leche looks and feels a lot like caramel, but the flavors are more complex and the sweetness is less overwhelming. You can make you own using this recipe.
