• 6 teaspoons milk

Queen of Hearts

Now let’s get baking!

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Tart Shells

1. Let the pie crust sheets thaw as instructed on the package. Once thawed, preheat your oven to the temperature listed on your package, and spray your muffin tin with nonstick spray (or grease with butter).
2. Roll out the crust dough to about half of its current thickness. Cut out circles of dough using a circular cookie cutter or a glass and gently press each circle into your muffin tin. Trim any excess hanging over the edge of the tin with a knife. Use a cookie cutter to cut out 12 heart-shaped pieces with the extra dough.
3. Prick the base of each tart shell with a fork. Line a cookie tray with parchment paper and lay your hearts on it. Bake the tarts and hearts for around 10-12 minutes, or until golden. Keep in mind that the hearts may bake quicker than the shells and may need to be removed before. Keep a close eye on the oven so you can check on that. Allow both sets of pastries to cool.

Step 2: Prepare the Mock Cream Filling

1. While the tarts and hearts are baking, add the gelatin powder to the cold water and allow it to bloom for 5 minutes. In a small saucepan, mix the sugar and milk over low heat until the sugar fully dissolves.
2. Add the gelatin (once it’s ready) to the saucepan and stir until it’s fully dissolved. Then, remove from the heat and allow the mixture to reach room temperature.
3. With a stand mixer or handheld beater, beat the butter and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Then, slowly add the cooled milk mixture, and mix constantly until it’s all fully combined.

Step 3: Prep the Icing

1. Mix the powdered sugar and milk with a fork or spoon until smooth in a small bowl. Pour half the mixture into a separate bowl.
2. In one of the bowls, add 5-10 drops of red food coloring and mix to combine. Continue to add food coloring and mix until your desired shade is reached.
3. In the second bowl, add the cocoa powder and mix. If your mixture becomes too thick, add an additional ¼ teaspoon of milk.
4. Spoon each of the icings into its own piping bag or plastic sandwich bag. Cut the tip off the bag very close to the corner, creating a small outlet for your icing.

Step 4 (Final Step!): Assemble the Tarts

1. Add a spoonful of strawberry jam to each tart shell and smooth all over the bottom.
2. Add the mock cream (by the spoonful) until the shell is full. Smooth the top over with a spatula.
3. Carefully pipe the chocolate icing onto half of each tart, and pipe your red icing on the other half.
4. Take your pie crust hearts and place one in the middle of each tart.
5. Before serving, allow the icing to set for at least 15 minutes.
