Instructions:

Dough:

  1. In a mixer with a paddle attachment, mix flour, powdered sugar, and cold butter and cut into cubes until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
  2. Add egg yolk, reduce the speed of the mixer and mix until a dough is formed.
  3. It is essential to mix the dough as little as possible. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it cool in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
  4. Cut 1/8 of the dough and roll it to a 2-3 mm thickness. It can be rolled between two baking papers or on the work surface using flour to prevent the dough from sticking.
  5. If you choose the second method, brushing off the excess flour at the end of the rolling is essential.
  6. Attach the dough to the bottom and sides of tartlets or ring molds
    Fold the dough’s bottom with a fork and freeze for about ten minutes.
  7. Heat the oven to 170 degrees in the turbo program, and bake for 10-12 minutes until the dough is golden.
  8. To prepare crème pâtissier, boil milk in a pot with a vanilla stick.
  9. Meanwhile, beat egg yolks, sugar, and cornflour in a bowl.
  10. After the milk has boiled, add a little of the boiling milk to the bowl of the egg yolks, sugar, and cornflour and whisk immediately.
  11. Then, put everything into the milk pot, stir vigorously, and bring to a boil.
    It is essential to stir the mixture constantly.
  12. As soon as it bubbles, remove the cream from the pot and transfer it to a bowl.
  13. Place plastic wrap over the mixture and place in the refrigerator until completely cooled.

Assemble the tart:

  1. Fill the pastry dough with pastry cream and decorate it with fresh blueberries.
