Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

For crusts
8 ounces purchased almond biscotti
1 cup whole almonds, toasted (about 5 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For filling
1 1/4 cups whipping cream
8 ounces good-quality white chocolate (such as Lindt or Baker's), chopped
12 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
5 teaspoons vanilla extract
For coulis
2 cups quartered hulled strawberries (about 12 ounces)
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make crusts:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grind biscotti and almonds in processor until finely ground. Add butter and process until well blended. Divide mixture equally among eight 4 1/2-inch diameter tartlet pans with removable bottoms (about 1/3 cup mixture for each). Press mixture onto bottoms and up sides of pans. Bake until crusts are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer pans to racks; cool completely.
  • Make filling:
  • Bring 1/2 cup whipping cream to boil in heavy medium saucepan. Remove from heat. Add chopped white chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Cool mixture to room temperature. Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese in large bowl until smooth. Gradually add white chocolate mixture and beat until well blended. Beat remaining 3/4 cup whipping cream, sugar and vanilla in medium bowl until medium-firm peaks form. Fold into cream cheese mixture in 2 additions. Divide filling among prepared tartlet crusts (about 1/2 filing for each). Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
  • Make coulis:
  • Combine strawberries, water, 3 tablespoons sugar and lemon juice in blender. Purée until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours. (Tartlets and coulis can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
  • Remove tartlets from pans. Place 1 tartlet on each of 8 plates. Spoon strawberry coulis alongside and serve.

I had high hopes for this recipe, but I was disappointed. The tartlets were bland and boring.

Overall, I thought these tartlets were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

The tartlets were a bit difficult to make. I had some trouble getting the white chocolate ganache smooth.

The tartlets were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure how I feel about the white chocolate and strawberry combination. I might try using a different fruit coulis next time.

These tartlets are a bit time-consuming to make, but they are definitely worth the effort.

These tartlets were easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and the results were still stunning. The white chocolate ganache was a bit tricky to work with, but I managed to get it smooth and creamy. Over

I'm not a big fan of white chocolate, but these tartlets changed my mind. The white chocolate ganache was smooth and rich, and the strawberry coulis added a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. I'll definitely be making these again.

These white chocolate tartlets were a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of the creamy white chocolate ganache and the sweet strawberry coulis was divine. I received numerous compliments from my guests, and they all asked for the recipe.
