Ingredients
Scale
Tart Crust:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- Salt
- 9 tbsp cold butter
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Blueberry Ganache:
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries (about 25-30)
- 6 tbsp heavy cream
- 12 tbsp white chocolate chips
Other:
- 4-inch tart tins
- Large mixing bowl
- Mesh sieve
- Pastry cutter (or 2 forks)
- Silicone spatula
- Rolling pin
- Pie weights (dry rice or beans work as well)
- Small pot
- Whisk
Instructions
- Tart Crust – Sift flour, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt together into a large mixing bowl
- Cut the butter into small 1/2 inch cubes, and add to the dry ingredients. Using the pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse cornmeal
- Add egg yolks and vanilla extract. Using the spatula, mix the ingredients until they just combine
- Use your hands to shape the dough into a ball. Cut the dough in half, wrap each ball with saran wrap, and chill in the fridge for at least an hour
- Take out one ball of dough, roll it into a round shape until it’s about 1/4 inch thick, and drape it into the tart tin
- Gently press the dough into the sides of the tin, ensuring a tight fit. Trim excess dough and chill for 15 minutes before preheating the oven to 375°F
- Line the dough with foil, add pie weights, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove weights and bake for another 5 minutes until golden brown. Cool
- Blueberry Ganache – Smash blueberries in a pot, add cream, warm over low heat, and strain. Melt white chocolate, combine with blueberry mixture, and cool
- Assemble – Spoon ganache into cooled tart crusts and freeze for 3 hours or overnight before serving
Notes
- Ensure the tart dough is well-chilled for easier handling
- Do not rush the cooling process of the ganache to prevent a runny filling
- Experiment with different berries for unique variations
