Berry Tartlets with Creamy Filling

Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries)
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp raspberry jam
• 1 tbsp water

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll out puff pastry sheet and cut into three 6-inch circles using a round cutter or bowl.
3. Place circles on the prepared baking sheet. Use a fork to prick the center of each circle, leaving a 1-inch border.
4. In a saucepan, whisk together heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, cornstarch, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and bubbles.
5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Spoon the warm custard into the center of each pastry circle, filling to the edge of the border.
6. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and puffed.
7. While tartlets cool, slice strawberries and mix all berries in a bowl.
8. In a small saucepan, heat raspberry jam and water over low heat until smooth and pourable. Drizzle over the cooled tartlets.
9. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
