PISTACHIO MASCARPONE TARTLETS

 makes 6 tartlets | time: 1 hour 

 

 

ingredients:

 

  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed 
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 3/4 cup strawberry jam
  • 1/4 cup mascarpone
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream 
  • 1/4 cup  Pistakio 

    OG pistachio spread

  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar 
  • 3-4 strawberries, sliced 

 

instructions:

 

  • preheat oven to 400ºF. cut puff pastry into 6 equal squares. using a knife, but do not press all the way through, lightly score 1/2" from the edges on all sides to form an inner square. place the pastries on a parchment lined tray. poke the centers a few times with a fork and lightly brush the tops with the beaten egg. bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown and puffed. using the back of a spoon push down on the inner square to form a pocket. 

  • while the pastry cools, make the pistachio mascarpone whipped cream. in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a medium bowl with an electric beater or whisk), combine the mascarpone, cream, pistakio, and sugar. whip on high speed until medium peaks form. transfer to a piping bag with any decorative tip.  

  • when ready to assemble, spread 2 tablespoons of the jam in each tartlet and then pipe the pistachio mascarpone whipped cream overtop. garnish with sliced strawberries and enjoy!
