It’s been a year since I last made something for my brother’s birthday and this year I asked him what he wanted for his birthday treat. Last year I made Black Forest Cheesecake<\/a>, which he absolutely loved and I made again. This year he asked for a Black Forest Tart, I personally think he needs to try something else but oh well, up to him!<\/p>\n

As it’s still shravan mayian, I had to make this totally eggless, looking for the right eggless short crust recipe was quite hard as they are mainly made with egg to give it that rich pastry. I am not the best at making pastry so I wasn’t keen on making this and hoped it worked out. I did have a backup plan though and thought of making a cheesecake base if all fails, but luckily it worked! I was surprised. It still didn’t go that according to plan as the case did shrink slightly at the edge but it’s better then my previous attempts and also I didn’t find any difference in the pastry without the egg, I was a happy bunny.<\/p>\n

This tart is very very rich and me being a sweet tooth even I found it quite rich so a little slice does go a long way! I also would add kirsch, I really thought I had a bottle at home but I didn’t \ud83d\ude41 and I think by adding this is would give it that extra element.<\/p>\n

          5. 5. Roll out the dough thinly about as thin as a \u00a31 and make sure it's 5cm larger then the tin. There should be an overlap of pastry around the case. When placing the pastry and press into the ridges softly, if it breaks don't worry just patch it up with more pastry.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          6. 6. Using a fork prick the base then add a sheet of baking paper and scatter over baking beans. Then bake for 30-40mins until it's a golden and cooked through.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
