Zubereitung von Lemon Tarts
- **Prepare the pastry:** Cut cold butter into flour using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Gradually add ice water, mixing gently until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- **Make the lemon filling:** In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed milk, lemon juice, and yellow food coloring (if using).
- Stir in the lemon zest until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- **Prepare the whipped cream:** In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle.
- **Assemble the tarts:** On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled pastry to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a round cookie cutter or knife to cut out circles of pastry slightly larger than your tart molds.
- Gently press the pastry rounds into greased mini tart tins. Prick the base with a fork.
- **Blind bake the pastry:** Line the tart shells with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes.
- Remove the weights and parchment paper and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the pastry is lightly golden.
- Let the pastry shells cool completely on a wire rack.
- **Wash and chop cherries:** Wash and drain the glazed cherries. Cut each cherry into 4 lengthwise pieces.
- **Fill and decorate:** Fill each cooled tart shell with the lemon filling. Pipe a swirl of whipped cream on top.
- Decorate with the chopped cherries.
- **Chill and serve:** Refrigerate the tarts for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve chilled, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
