Method
Preparation of Crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a food processor, combine the flour, cold butter, and powdered sugar. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the egg yolk and cold water to the crumb mixture, pulsing until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit into a 12-cup tartlet pan. Press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan, trimming any excess.
- Line the tartlet shells with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 10-12 minutes, then remove the weights and parchment, and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Let cool completely.
Preparation of Filling
- In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the white chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth.
- Add vanilla extract and mix well.
Assembly
- Pour the white chocolate ganache into the cooled tartlet shells, filling them about three-quarters full.
- Place fresh raspberries on top of the ganache, and lightly brush the tops with raspberry jam.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving.
Notes
Use cold ingredients for a flakier pastry. Chill the dough to help maintain structure during baking. These can be prepared a day in advance.
