Portugese Tarts



At one of my previous jobs we used to sell Portugese Tarts, that is where I came to love them. But having them is a rare treat, because they are are so expensive. Two tarts cost more than making an entire batch of 12 at home. Which is why when I stumbled accross this recipe I had to try it and share it with you. The end result was great, they were super simple to make and tasted amazing.
