If you have enough tartlet pans, use a second one over each to line the dough during baking to keep the crust from shrinking down the sides. You can also line the tartlet shells with parchment paper and dried beans; the shells will take a few minutes longer to bake.
Yield Makes eight 3 1/2-inch tartlets
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- Roll the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface; fit into 8 fluted tartlet pans (3 1/2 inches in diameter, 1 1/2 inches deep). Chill at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line the tart shells with a second pan or parchment paper and dry beans. Place in the oven; bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the top pans or parchment lining; return to the oven if the bottoms of the shells are not fully browned. Set on a cooling rack until fully cool.
- Fill a bowl with ice and water; set aside. Place the berries, 2 tablespoons sugar, and the lemon zest in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the berries let off juices, the sugar dissolves, and the mixture begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and set the pan in the ice-water bath to cool.
- Chill a bowl and large whisk. Place the cream and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in the bowl; whip until soft peaks form. Fold 1/2 cup berry mixture into the whipped cream. Fill the tartlet shells with the mixture; top with the remaining berries and garnish with fresh pansies.
