Even yummier the day after in my opinion
Bertilles's Pear Chocolate and Almond tart
Another way to do it : Recently I used my own homemade crust recipe -ready in 5 mins time- it was delicious as well. Ingredients : 2 petits suisses (or 70 gr creamy cottage cheese), 120 gr flour, 60 gr softened butter, one pack of vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt. Preparation : preheat the oven at 200°. Mix all ingredients in a bowl with your fingers, shape it into a ball and spread it over the wax paper you have placed at the bottom of the pan. Spread the ganache, place the pears and bake it for 20 minutes. Then add the almond filling on top and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. My tip : as I enjoy the thin crusts, I only use 3/4 of the ball. The remaining can be kept in the refrigerator or can even be frozen. I use it when I need to make small single tartelettes.
