Hidden beneath a crispy puff pastry is a soft and melt-in-the-mouth milk mochi.

You can vary the filling to suit your tastes: azuki paste, chocolate, jam, or even almond cream, our recommendation for a refined pairing with the mochi.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the milk mochi
In a saucepan, pour in the milk, starch, and sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula.
When the dough thickens and becomes elastic like mochi, remove from the heat. Spread it out in a container dusted with starch and let it cool in the refrigerator. -
Prepare the tart shells
Cut the puff pastry into 12 equal pieces and place them in mini tartlet or muffin tins. Prick the bottom lightly with a fork. -
Fill
Add a little filling to the bottom (e.g., almond cream) then place a piece of milk mochi on top. -
Bake
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown. -
Decorate
Dust with powdered sugar or add some chopped nuts before serving.
These mini tartlets pair wonderfully with a Hojicha or a creamy Matcha latte.
An original little dessert to surprise your guests!
