Description

The recipe won't take much time. Making tartlets yourself is not difficult. For the tartlet cases, prepare a simple shortcrust pastry. By the way, this pastry works well for both sweet and savory, salty appetizer tartlets. Also, for making festive tartlets, prepare a custard cream. You can, of course, substitute it with whipped cream, but the result won't be the same. So, see the recipe below. Serve chilled.
