Mini Strawberry Tarts with a Digestive Base
Anyone is as obssesed with Digestives as I am ? These easy to make mini strawberry tarts, with a Digestive base, might be exactly what you need. Strawberry tart and me is the longest running love story ❤ Among the childhood memories I cherish the most, is my parents buying me a strawberry tart from the bakery next to my school, after a long day. The bakery and the school are now closed, but strawberry tart is something I still like to eat whenever I get the chance. It’s cool that I know also get to twist recipes and modify the base. The best part of the tart is the crème patissière in my opinion. So easy to make and soooo delicious. Hope you try this recipe at home 😊✌
