Mom's Butter tarts. With 7 kids she had to bake fast. These never lasted long. This was my first batch and they will always remind me of her.ENJOY😊

I was planning to bake a pecan tart for Thanksgiving day, but my boyfriend told me suddenly he wanted to eat pumpkin pie, so I had to change my plan! I made this gorgeous dessert with both pecan nuts and pumpkin, and the result was so delicious.The tart crust may crack easily after you take it out from the oven at Step 7, so handle with care. I personally feel the wheat germ biscuit tart crust is the best match with the filling. It is easier to make if you use the already baked tart crust. Spread with generous amounts of the jam and amaretto mixture, to make the tart taste much better. Recipe by dreamy-kitten

Its just not christmas without butter tarts! I also made this into a butter tart pie and it was delicious:-)

I saw a chestnut tart in my neighborhood bakery that looked really good, but I thought I could make it myself. I combined almond and chestnut cream for a double nutty kick.I used Bonne Maman's creme de marron (chestnut cream). The cream is sweet, so I held back on the sugar. While baking, keep an eye on it and adjust the temperature as necessary. The tart will easily crumble while hot, so make sure to completely cool before taking out of the pan. Recipe by Yossy

Chinese New Year is fast approaching and pineapple tarts are popping out everywhere if you are residing in Singapore. This year, I decided to make my own with a bit of old and new. I had been experimenting on these tarts for a couple of days and old is using a traditional recipe (which is from my grandma). New is going an unorthodox route with a French pastry as the base.I personally dislike the base. I find the cookie base crumbly and lack flavors without much texture. The pineapple jam is also a bit too sweet and doesn't have much of a chew. After much experimenting, I finally settled for a reduced sugar pineapple jam and a very underrated pastry, sablé breton, as the base. I can finally taste the pineapple's tartness as well as an aromatic cookie base.Even tho they look more rustic, but they are just the way I wanted them to be. The downside is the cookie base dough has to be parbaked be4 molding into individual tarts. This means the leftover cookies cannot be reused. You can bake the leftover and consume as it is or blitz them into powder and use it as garnishes for ice cream or any desserts.But I didn't stop here. I still feel that there is a lack of something and so I improvised. I had included the extra steps in the directions below. You can totally skip the extra steps and the tarts will still taste great. On a last note, do taste and adjust the amount of sugar that you are gonna add. Some pineapples are sweeter and some are sour.

I've made these with or without raisins. Either way they're good and easy. Thank my love for his photography❤️

Peaches go well with both cheese and custard, so I tried combining the two.You could probably bake the tart in an 18 cm tart pan instead. In that case, cut the peaches to any size you like for the topping. It might look pretty with layers of sliced peaches. Recipe by Pu-kosan
