Ingredients
- Baked Cheese Tarts
- recipe from Peachy Bunny Mel
- makes 6 2.5" tarts
- subheading: Ingredients:
- For the Molten Cheese Filling
- 180g cream cheese
- 20g parmesan cheese
- 50g plain yogurt
- 40g sugar
- 20g butter
- 1 egg white
- For the Tart Shell
- 60g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 15g sugar
- 25g egg, whisked
- 80g plain flour
- 1 yolk (for brushing)
- subheading: Method:
- For the Molten Cheese Filling
- 1. Place cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, butter, sugar and yogurt in a sauce-pan. Then turn the stove on low heat and stir to melt the ingredients.
- 2. When all the ingredients have melted, bring away from the heat to cool down for about a few minutes. (I let it cool down for about 3 to 4 minutes) Then mix in the egg white. Turn on the stove to low heat again and continue to stir until cheese mixture thickens. (For the original recipe : When all the ingredients have melted, transfer to another bowl and mix in the egg white. Pour back to the sauce-pot and cook on low heat, stirring constantly and remove from heat when cheese filling has thickened to a consistency of mayonnaise.)
- 3. Transfer to a separate bowl immediately. Let cool and then cover with cling wrap and refrigerate for around 3 hours.
- For the Tart Shells
- 4. Beat butter still smooth. Then add sugar and continue to beat till creamy.
- 5. In a bowl, lightly whisk an egg. Measure out 25g of the whisked egg.
- 6. Whisk in the 25g egg to the creamed butter.
- 7. Mix in flour in 2 batches to form a dough. Do not over-mix.
- 8. Cover dough with cling wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- 9. Remove dough from the fridge and lightly dust with flour. Roll out to ⅓" thick.
- 10. Use tart pan as a guide and cut out the required size of the dough. Place the cut dough into the tart pan and mold to fit.
- 11. Use a fork to poke little holes at the bottom of the tart.
- 12. Refrigerate for another 15 minutes.
- 13. Preheat oven to 160C.
- 14. After 15 minutes, bake prepared tart shell in preheated oven at 160C for 20 minutes.
- 15. Remove tart shell from oven and let cool slightly.
- Making the Cheese Tarts
- 16. Preheat oven to 230C
- 17. Scoop chilled cheese filling into the tart shells.
- 18. Brush with egg yolk.
- 19. Bake on upper rack of preheated oven at 230C for 5 to 8 minutes. (Watch closely!) - I over-baked mine. I will bake for 6 to 7 minutes in future with my oven.
- 20. Once out of the oven, remove cheese tarts from baking tray immediately and cool for a few minutes.
- 21. Serve. (These cheese tarts are best served freshly baked from the oven)
