Raspberry Tarts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles tiny peas.
• Combine egg yolk, water, and lemon juice with a fork.
• Sprinkle egg yolk mixture over flour mixture and stir together with a fork until it forms a ball.
• Pull small pieces of pastry from the ball and press into bottom and sides of the tart pans to about 1/8 inch thickness. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Combine cornstarch and cold water in a small saucepan until smooth. Stir in sugar and raspberries. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until thickened, about 10-15 minutes. Allow mixture to cool.
• Spoon filling evenly into tart shells, filling each no more than 2/3 full.
• Bake at 425° F for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° F and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until pastry is golden brown.
• Remove from oven and cool, in pans, for 15 minutes. Remove from pans to cooling racks and cool completely.

Steps:

• Crust: In a large bowl mix flour and sugar. Cut in the butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk and mix gently until it can be shaped into a ball. Shape dough into a round ball and flatten, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 1 hour, or until firm.
• Filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine sugar, flour, and lemon zest. Add berries and roll them in mixture until coated.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll out until 1/4-inch thick and roughly 12 inches round. Place on baking sheet.
• Mound berries in center of dough, leaving 1 1/2 inches uncovered around the edge. Gently fold the dough up to meet the berries, and drizzle with melted butter.
• Mix egg and milk. Brush dough with mixture.
• Bake approximately 35 to 40 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
• Let cool and dust with powdered sugar.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, salt and brown sugar and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the egg yolks and continue to pulse until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
• Press the dough into the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of a buttered 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Bake until light brown, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
• Select 10 pretty raspberries for garnishing the cake and set them aside. Place the rest of the raspberries with their juice in a saucepan and add the granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the mixture boils. Combine the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water and stir it into the boiling fruit. Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Remove the rim of the tart pan and pour the fruit into the cooled shell. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or until set. Garnish with the reserved berries and serve with whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Using a food processor or rolling pin, blitz the chocolate biscuits into fine crumbs.
• Mix in the melted butter.
• Divide the biscuit crumbs in 12 cases of a muffin tin.
• Freeze for 10 minutes, or until solid.
• Prepare the filling by gently heating the double cream over a low-medium heat.
• Once hot, throw in the chocolate and allow the heat of the cream to melt it. Whisk together until completely smooth.
• Pour the filling into the biscuit bases and garnish with the raspberries.
• Chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours, until set.
• Drizzle over the white and dark chocolate and sieve over the icing sugar.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a small wide-bottom bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1 tablespoon milk; let stand for 2 minutes. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, flour and salt. Gradually whisk in remaining milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. , Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolk; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot liquid into gelatin mixture. Stir until gelatin is dissolved; return to pan. Gently stir in extract. Cover and cool to room temperature without stirring, about 30 minutes. , For crust, in a small bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt; blend in butter with a wooden spoon until smooth. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of two 4-in. tart pans with removable bottoms coated with cooking spray. , Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. , In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar; beat until soft peaks form. Fold into filling mixture. Spoon into tart shells. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour. Top with raspberries.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, combine cookies, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process until very fine crumbs form. Add butter and pulse until mixture just comes together. Press crumbs firmly into a 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Place on a baking sheet and bake until crust is dry and set, 20 minutes. Let cool.
• In a large bowl, combine chocolate and pinch of salt. In a small saucepan, bring cream to a bare simmer over medium-high. Immediately pour cream over chocolate and let stand 1 minute. Stir gently until chocolate melts and mixture is completely smooth. Pour chocolate into cooled tart shell and refrigerate until set, 30 minutes. To serve, remove tart from pan and scatter raspberries on top.

Steps:

• Make dough:
• Blend together flour, butter, shortening, and salt in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse in a food processor) just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some small (roughly pea-size) butter lumps. Transfer 2 cups mixture to a bowl and drizzle 4 tablespoons ice water evenly over it (reserve remaining mixture). Stir gently with a fork until incorporated.
• Squeeze a small handful of dough: If it doesn't hold together, add more ice water 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stirring until incorporated. (Do not overwork dough, or pastry will be tough.)
• Turn out dough onto a work surface and divide into 4 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather all dough together with pastry scraper and press into a ball, then flatten into a 5-inch disk. If dough is sticky, dust lightly with additional flour. Wrap disk in plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Make topping while dough chills:
• Add almonds and sugar to reserved dough mixture in a bowl and rub together until some large clumps form.
• Assemble pie:
• Put a large baking sheet on oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out disk of dough into a 14- by 13-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin. Fit into tart pan and trim excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang under pastry and press against rim of pan to reinforce edge. Fill shell with berries and sprinkle evenly with topping. Bake tart in pan on baking sheet until topping and crust are golden and filling is bubbling, about 55 to 60 minutes (loosely cover with a sheet of foil after 30 minutes to prevent overbrowning). Cool in pan on a rack 20 minutes, then remove side of pan and cool tart completely, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Prepare pie crust according to your directions and cut and fit into small tart tins. Press evenly against bottom and sides. (or you can use pre-made small tarts
• Cream butter and sugar.

• Spoon 1/2 teaspoon jam into each tart shell.
• Cover each tart 2/3 full with coconut mixture.
• Bake on bottom shelf at 300°F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cool slightly then remove from pans. Makes 2 dozen tarts.

Steps:

• First, preheat the oven to 180C and lightly grease a 12-dip tart tin.
• Sift flour and sugar into the bowl and rub diced butter into the flour until it forms breadcrumbs.
• Gradually add the water until the mixture binds together.
• Place the pastry on a lightly floured surface and kneed lightly until a smooth round ball.
• Then, place the pastry on a tray, cover with cling film and place in the fridge.
• Chill for 15-20 minutes and then roll out onto a lightly floured surface until about 1/2cm in thickness.
• Cut with a pastry cutter (7.5cm in diameter [medium sized]) and place into the pastry tins.
• 'Blinds Bake' for 10 minutes and then remove from the oven adding a teaspoon of raspberry jam in each tart.
• Place back in the oven at the same temperature for 15-20 minutes or until golden on the rims of the pastry tart base.
• Remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
