Ingredients
  

For the Tart Shell

  • ½ cup powdered sugar Can substitute with granulated sugar.
For the Pistachio Filling

Method
 

Prepare the Tart Shell
  1. Cream together unsalted butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Gradually mix in all-purpose flour until just combined. Form the dough into disc shapes, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Shape and Bake
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Roll out the chilled dough to about ¼ inch thick.
  2. Press the dough into mini tartlet tins, prick bases with a fork, and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Let tartlets cool completely on a wire rack.
Make the Pistachio Filling
  1. Combine pistachio paste and heavy cream in a mixing bowl; blend until smooth.
  2. Beat in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated and the color lightens.
Fill and Bake Again
  1. Pour the pistachio filling into each cooled tart shell, filling them about three-quarters full.
  2. Return tartlets to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until set.
  3. Allow tartlets to cool completely before removing from tins.
