Préparation
Sweet pastry:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter with the icing sugar until creamy.
- Add the egg yolks one by one, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the flour immediately and mix until you have a smooth dough.
- Wrap the dough in disc-shaped plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Roll out the pastry to 3mm and cut out 10cm circles using a cookie cutter. Place the circles in the tartlet tins and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool.
Mascarpone cream:
- In a bowl, whisk the mascarpone with the icing sugar.
- Split the vanilla pod in half lengthways and scrape out the inside with a knife. Add the vanilla pulp to the mascarpone mixture and whisk.
- Slowly pour the whipping cream while beating to obtain a firm, smooth cream.
Assembling the tarts:
- Wash, hull and cut the Savoura strawberries into quarters.
- Fill the cooled tartlet bases halfway with the mascarpone cream mixture.
- Gently arrange the strawberry quarters and enjoy!
