The Filling:
200ml whipping cream
300ml milk
3 eggs
3 egg yolk
80g sugar (u can add more if u like it to be more sweeter)
Vanilla essense
Whisk egg n sugar then add whipping cream, milk & vanilla essence
Divide the puff pastry into 24 portions. Flatten the pastry and roll it into about 3-mm thick. Press onto the tart moulds.
Pour the fillings into the pastry tarts from step
Then bake at 200C for 20 mins on the centre rack. (You may place it at the lower rack. However, if there are no caramelised dots on the egg custard, move the baking tray upwards to let the tart surface take up more heat to create the caramelized dots. I baked mine on the top 2nd rack and it caramelised the whole custard!)
