  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Cost: Economical
  • Rest time: 30 Minutes
  • Preparation time: 45 Minutes
  • Portions: 20 tartlets
  • Cooking methods: Oven
  • Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients

  • 2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup plain natural yogurt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 packet vanillin (0.4g packet)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups mascarpone
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 lb 2 oz g blueberries
  • to taste wafer paper (in sheets)
  • to taste butter (for greasing the molds)
  • to taste all-purpose flour (for flouring the molds)

Preparation

  • Place the flours in a mound on a pastry board (or if you prefer, in a bowl) with the baking powder, vanillin, and sugar. Add the egg, room temperature yogurt, and oil. Quickly knead the ingredients, form a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about half an hour (if you prefer, you can use it immediately, it will be much softer).

  • In a bowl, place the liquid cream and the sugar, beat the mixture lightly with a whisk, it should not be stiff. Add the mascarpone and continue beating until the ingredients are well combined.

  • On a well-floured work surface, roll out the shortcrust pastry with a rolling pin to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Cut out about 20 circles with a round cutter of about 3 3/4 inches in diameter, roll them again slightly with the rolling pin.

  • Butter and flour the molds with a diameter of about 3 inches, height 1 3/4 inches, and cover each with a disc of shortcrust pastry. Prick it with a fork to prevent it from rising during baking. Bake at 356°F for about 15 minutes. Let cool and remove the pastry from the molds.

  • Fill the tartlets with a generous spoonful of mascarpone cream, decorate with blueberries and wafer paper leaves.

Tips/advice

When rolling out the shortcrust pastry, make sure to flour the work surface well.

If the dough is too soft, add a little flour, do not over-knead the mixture.
