Melt-in-mouth Pineapple tarts

Cute as a button and it melts in your mouth with a slight crisp PINEAPPLE TARTS! Yummy!!! 

This one is the hardest to make! Maybe not that hard but rather time consuming but worth the effort! I know, i don't have any artistic skill but they still turn out well, just not great! Hahaha!

Ingredients 

250g salted butter, softened 

40g snow sugar 

half tsp vanilla extract 

2egg yolks

2cups plain flour, sifted 

1 1/2 tbsp corn flour sifted 

1/2 pack pineapple paste

1extra egg for egg wash  

In a large bowl, combine the butter, sugar and pinch of salt. Mix until they are well combined and add the egg yolks and vanilla extract, then mix in plain flour and mix again until well combined and frasier lightly to form into soft dough. Wrap and store in the fridge for about 1 hour to let the dough relax. To shape the tarts - flatten a piece of dough about 10g with lightly floured hand and place a piece of 9g pineapple jam in the center, wrap and seal well. Roll the dough lightly into round shape and snip the surface of the pastry with small scissors to form spiky look. Brush the pastry with egg wash and bake for about 30mins at 150c . Cool on the rack and place them in a airtight cookie container or pack them up in an attractive container or box and attached a cute little homemade sticker for friends and relatives as New Year gift ! HAPPY Lunar New Year 2014!
