Tartlets on our tables, as a rule, appear only on holidays. They are baked from salted, shortbread or choux pastry, or they are simply bought ready-made in stores. They are filled with a variety of meat, fish, vegetable fillings. However, shortcrust pastry tartlets filled with creams, jam, jam, jelly, fruits and berries are especially popular. This is the best portioned dessert ever! Today we will make custard tartlets with apricot jam. You can find a recipe on how to bake shortbread pieces on the pages of the site. Also, with no less success, you can buy them blanks in the supermarket or buy ready-made frozen dough and make baskets out of it.

There can be many variations in the preparation of this dessert. For example, you can make a custard cream, or even replace it with sour cream or whatever you like best. Any other fruit fillings can also be used in place of apricot jam. It is worth saying that if you will not serve the dessert right away, then keep the baskets in the refrigerator. Otherwise, under the influence of the cream, the tartlets can soften and lose their shape.
