Mini Pistachio Tartlets are delightful bite-sized desserts featuring a buttery tart shell filled with a smooth pistachio mixture, topped with a light dollop of whipped cream. Perfect for elegant gatherings or sweet cravings, these tartlets combine nutty flavors with a tender, golden-baked crust.

Ingredients

Scale

Tart Shell

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Pistachio Filling

  • 1 cup shelled pistachios
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs

Topping

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the tartlets.
  2. Prepare Tart Shell: In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and softened unsalted butter. Mix until the texture becomes crumbly. Add the granulated sugar and press the mixture evenly into mini tartlet pans, forming the tart shells.
  3. Make Pistachio Filling: Using a food processor, blend the shelled pistachios until finely chopped. Add granulated sugar and eggs to the processor and pulse until the mixture becomes smooth and well combined.
  4. Fill Tartlets: Pour the pistachio filling into the prepared tart shells, filling each about three-quarters full to allow space for rising during baking.
  5. Bake Tartlets: Place the tartlet pans into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is set.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the tartlets from the oven and let them cool on a rack. Once cooled, carefully remove them from the pans and finish each tartlet with a dollop of freshly whipped cream before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing with the flour.
  • Do not overfill the tart shells to prevent spilling during baking.
  • Allow tartlets to cool completely before removing from pans to maintain their shape.
  • Use fresh shelled pistachios for the best flavor and texture.
  • For a decorative touch, sprinkle chopped pistachios or a light dusting of powdered sugar on top of the whipped cream.
