Toffee Cream Tart Food

TOFFEE CREAM TART

Steps:

• 7 inch pastry case ready cooked. Either your own or bought. I tend to buy fresh pastry and line my pie dish and bake blind until cooked. My the ready cooked ones are very sweet & tasty.
• Melt the margarine and sugar, then stir in the flour. Whisk in the hot milk and stir as it thickens and reaches boiling point.
• Keep stirring all the time while you are waiting for the mixture to boil, then cook for 2-3 minutes stirring all the time.
• Remove from the heat, and add the syrup, then whisk the mixture.
• Spread the filling into the flan case and serve hot or place in the fridge to cool & serve with whipped cream or custard, or anything you want, I like it on its own. But I do put grated chocolate on for my grand children.

• To make the pastry, put the butter and flour in a food processor and whizz to fine crumbs. Pulse in the sugar. Mix the vanilla and egg yolk with 1 tbsp water, then dribble in while whizzing, to bring the pastry together. If it doesn't come together, whizz in a trickle more water.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to line 6 individual deep tart tins with an overhang. Prick the bottoms and chill for 20 mins.
• To make the sauce, melt all the ingredients together, then bubble for 2-5 mins until saucy. Cool.

• Spoon 1 tbsp of the sauce into each tart case. Mash the reserved date mixture with a potato masher, then tip into a bowl with the softened butter, vanilla, flour, bicarb, almonds, eggs, sugar and treacle. Whisk together with an electric whisk until just combined, then divide between tart cases.
