Chestnut Tart
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

Sweet Chestnut Mont Blanc Tart With Mousse Sweet Chestnut Mont Blanc Tart With Mousse
I wanted to eat mont blanc but the paste is so expensive. I wanted to make a simple yet gorgeous tart that could almost look shop-bought, so I filled this tart with mousse. For the mousse, I used milk jam that I had been given as a souvenir from Europe.The chocolate will prevent the tart from cooling.The sweet chestnuts I used were on sale. I bought 3 x 90 g bags and used 2 bags for paste and 1 bag for decoration.I don't have a food processor or hand mixer so I used a masher to crush the walnuts. If you have either of these though, feel free to use them instead, it'll make things much easier. Recipe by Megyumiruku -

Rich and Easy Chestnut Tart with Healthy Tart Crust Rich and Easy Chestnut Tart with Healthy Tart Crust
Because I received a lot of chestnuts as gift.If you are using candied chestnuts for the paste, you will not need to add any sugar. The milk could be substituted with soy milk or heavy cream, whichever you have on hand. Candied or fresh chestnuts that are simmered in sugar water can be substituted for the shibukawani (chestnuts simmered in their inner skins). Try not to use hard, uncooked fresh chestnuts!

Caramel Apple Tart Caramel Apple Tart
When I used a recipe that bakes the crust and almond cream/filling at the same time, the crust and almond cream turned out undercooked, so I came up with a recipe where the crust is baked "blind" in advance.Don't cut the apples too thinly. The petal shape will be three dimensional and look nicer if the apples have a certain thickness.The sauteed apples will shrink considerably once they are cooled. Please be careful not to overcook them in step 13. Recipe by mocchi4141 -

Cheese Chocolate Tart Cheese Chocolate Tart
I made this as a birthday present for my boyfriend. I always made strawberry cake, so this year to be different, I made chocolate tart. It's like Valentine's.For a 20 cm tart pan, it will be 1 cake. It's not very sweet, so use sweet or milk chocolate if you prefer sweeter taste. The reason I line chocolate flakes on the bottom is to prevent the cream from seeping through the poked holes. (maybe you don't need it)Instead of cheese cream, you can use whipped heavy cream, decorate with strawberry! Recipe by Yossy. (makes two 12 cm tart pan.)
