Walnut Tart
The Perfect Party : Episode FLTPP-102

Ingredients:

1-1/3 cup sugar
1/3-cup water
1 cup cream
1 egg yolk
1 egg
2 oz. melted butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1-1/2 cups walnuts
2 9-inch store-bought pastry shells
2 cups of beans
parchment paper
8-oz. chocolate bar

Directions:

  • Press store bought shells into a 9 inch tart pan. Place a sheet of parchment paper over the top.
  • Add 2 cups of beans.
  • Bake shell for 10 minutes, remove parchment and beans and bake another 5 minutes until set.
  • Boil sugar and water until it bubbles and changes color. Scald cream in separate pan.
  • Add the hot cream to the hot sugar mixture. Let new mixture boil a few minutes together. Wait until cool.
  • Beat egg and yolk together and add to the cooled cream.
  • Add melted butter and vanilla.
  • Pour walnuts into the tart. Pour mixture over that.
  • Bake tart at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes.
  • Once cooled boil water and place metal bowl on top (creating a double boiler effect).
  • When boiling turn off heat. Melt chocolate (heat from steam will melt chocolate) and spoon it over tart by drizzling it back and forth.
