Ingredients for the crust:
- 1 egg
- 65 g sugar
- 80 g milk chocolate
- 80 g flour
- 80 g butter
- a pinch of salt
Ingredients for the filling:
- 1 packet vanilla pudding
- 300 ml milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 200 g white chocolate
- 150 ml liquid cream
- 500 g strawberries
- 1 packet red Tort Gelee
Step by step:
1. Preparing the crust: Start by melting 80 g of butter together with 80 g of milk chocolate. You can do this in a heatproof bowl placed over a pot of boiling water (bain-marie method) or in the microwave, making sure to stir occasionally to avoid burning the chocolate.
2. Beat the egg and sugar: In a separate bowl, add the egg, 65 g of sugar, and a pinch of salt. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until it doubles in volume and becomes frothy. This is an essential step, as the air incorporated into the mixture will make the tart fluffier.
3. Combining the ingredients: Once the chocolate and butter have melted, let the mixture cool slightly, then add it to the bowl with the eggs. Mix well to combine the ingredients, then add the flour and mix with a spatula, being careful not to leave any lumps.
4. Baking the crust: Prepare a tart pan (about 23 cm in diameter) by lining it with parchment paper. Pour the obtained mixture into the pan and flatten it with a spatula. Place the pan in a preheated oven at 180°C and bake for about 20 minutes, until the crust becomes firm to the touch. Allow the base to cool completely.
5. Preparing the pudding: In a saucepan, add 300 ml of milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat and while stirring, add the packet of vanilla pudding. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens. Once the pudding is ready, let it cool for a few minutes.
6. Assembling the tart: Pour the warm pudding over the completely cooled tart base. Level it with a spatula and let it cool completely so that the pudding sets.
7. White chocolate: In a small saucepan, melt 200 g of white chocolate together with 150 ml of liquid cream over low heat, stirring continuously. Once the chocolate has melted and the mixture is homogeneous, let it cool slightly, then carefully pour it over the vanilla pudding.
8. Decorating with strawberries: Cut the strawberries in half and arrange them beautifully on top of the white chocolate. They not only add a vibrant look but also a fresh taste.
9. Finalizing with Tort Gelee: Prepare a packet of red Tort Gelee according to the instructions on the package, using cold water. Carefully pour the cooled gelatin over the strawberries to set them and add a glossy layer.
10. Final cooling: Place the tart in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the gelatin has completely set. This step is essential for achieving the perfect texture.
11. Serving: Cut the tart into slices and serve it with a glass of fresh lemonade or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a perfect contrast between warm and cold.
Practical tips and variations:
- You can experiment with other fruits, such as raspberries or blackberries, to give the tart a different note.
- Instead of Tort Gelee, you can use a fruit glaze or even melted chocolate for a decadent look.
- If you prefer a more intense flavor, add a few drops of vanilla essence to the pudding mixture.
Nutritional information: One serving of tart contains approximately 350 calories, with a high content of carbohydrates from sugar and flour, but also healthy fats from butter and chocolate. Strawberries provide a boost of vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, making them a beneficial ingredient for health.
Frequently asked questions:
- Can I use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate? Yes, dark chocolate will provide a more intense flavor and a slightly bitter note.
- What can I do if I don't have Tort Gelee? You can make a simple gelatin glaze or use fruit syrup to cover the strawberries.
- How can I store the tart? The tart can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, covered with plastic wrap.
This strawberry tart with vanilla pudding is more than just a dessert; it is a culinary experience that brings together the flavors of the season and the joy of sharing special moments with loved ones. So, embrace the art of cooking and treat your family and friends to this sweet delicacy! Bon appétit!
