## Ingredients

- 2 cups milk
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup cornstarch
- 4 egg yolks
- 3 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup cold whipping cream
- 350 g all-purpose flour
- 50 g blanched almond flour
- 150 g powdered sugar
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 180 g cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 70 g whisked eggs
- fresh fruits

## Instructions

1. Pour milk into a saucepan.
2. Add granulated sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks and vanilla extract.
3. Continuously whisk these ingredients together on low heat for about ten minutes until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble.
4. Sieve the mixture into a heat proof bowl.
5. Cover and refrigerate until cold.
6. Whip up cold whipping cream in a separate bowl and fold it in.
7. Mix all purpose flour, blanched almond flour, powdered sugar and salt.
8. Thoroughly mix in some cold butter until you have a sandy texture.
9. Slowly mix in whisked eggs until you have a dough.
10. Shape the dough into a flat rectangle, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for an hour or until firm.
11. Split the dough and keep any dough that you're not actively working with in the fridge.
12. On a lightly floured counter press your dough before rolling it to prevent cracking.
13. Cut the dough into the appropriate shapes for your tart molds and press it into each mold.
14. Use a knife to cut any rough edges off and use a fork to poke the bottom of each shell to encourage even baking.
15. Freeze the raw tart shells, then bake them from frozen at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until golden.
16. Once the shells have cooled down, use a piping bag fitted with a large round tip to pipe your cold vanilla cream filling into each shell.
17. Smooth each top using an angled spatula.
18. Top your tarts with fresh fruits of your choice.
