VoL Au Vent
Ingredients
Directions
Roll out the tart paste to about ⅛ inch thick.
Cut out a shape using a tin cutter the size of the dish.
Place the cut tart paste on a baking plate lined with paper.
Brush the tart paste with the yolk of the egg.
Roll out the puff paste to 1 inch thick and cut it with the same cutter.
Lay the puff paste on top of the tart paste.
Use a smaller cutter to press into the center of the puff paste, nearly cutting through.
