Marble cake - 16.02.14

Blueberry cheese tart 15.02.14

This morning, i decided to make some tart as my girl has been requesting it for so long. Finally, i did it and has adapted from Aunty Yochana's recipe according. And i also noted from her comment that never let the pastry be too wet. Otherwise, the pastry will be hard to remove from our mould as i ever experience this and therefore i jolt down this note here.

I have make into around 40 pcs mini tart mould:

Ingredients for pastry:

100gm butter
60gm icing sugar
30gm beaten egg
200 gm plain flour

66g icing sugar
1 tsp lemon paste Or (1tsp lemond rind with 1/2 tbsp lemon juice)

2. Add in beaten eggs, salt and vanilla essence
3. Fold in flour and mix into a dough. Leave in the fridge for 20 mins
4. Press dough into tart mould and cut off exces dough
5. Bake the tart mould till half baked and let cool slightly at 170 deg for about 10 to 15 min
6. Cream cream cheese and icing sugar till creamy
7. Add in lemon paste and vanilla essence
8. Add in egg on at a time, beating well after each addition
