Fruits tartlets- 1/16/10
I went to the market today and saw that they have ripe raspberries and back berries. They looked so good so I decided to buy them and make some fruits tartlets. I also have a few apples hanging around so I decided to make 3 different typed of tartlets. The base of the tartlets is make with home made pâte sucrée. Pâte sucrée is a crunchy dough that taste like a sweet short bread used mostly for pie.
A platter full of tartlets!

On a floured worked surface, roll out the dough with a floured rolling pin into a large circle. Note that I only use half of the dough. |

ready to go into a heated oven at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. |

Lining up the fruits and melted chocolate will be used as glue on the tartlets.
|
First, i dipped the bottom of the fruits in the melted chocolate and then it will be decorated on top of the tartlets. |
Here all the fruits are on top of the tartlets. |
