Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour sifted for lightness
  • cup powdered sugar for sweetness and smooth texture
  • Pinch salt to enhance flavors
  • 12 tablespoon cold unsalted butter cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 3 large egg yolks room temperature for better mixing
  • ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract for aroma
  • cup fresh blueberries washed about 35-40 berries
  • 8 tablespoon heavy cream full-fat for richness
  • 16 tablespoon white chocolate chips high-quality for smooth ganache

Method
 

  1. Sift together the flour, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and incorporate into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in egg yolks and vanilla extract with a spatula until the mixture just starts to come together.
  4. Shape the dough into a ball with your hands, divide it in half, wrap each portion in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
  5. Roll out one dough portion to about ¼ inch thick, dividing if needed for an even thickness to fit the tart tins.
  6. Carefully line the tart tins with the rolled dough, pressing gently into the sides without stretching to prevent shrinkage.
  7. Trim the excess dough by rolling over the tin edges with a rolling pin and gently prick the bottom with a fork, avoiding piercing through.
  8. Repeat the rolling, lining, trimming, and pricking steps with the remaining dough.
  9. Chill the prepared tart shells in the fridge for 15 minutes while preheating the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Line the tart shells with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights before baking.
  11. Bake the shells for 10 minutes, remove the foil and weights, then continue baking for 5 minutes until lightly golden.
  12. Allow the tart shells to cool completely before adding the ganache.
  13. Place blueberries in a small pot and mash with a fork or whisk until smooth.
  14. Add heavy cream and heat gently over low heat, continuing to mash until the mixture turns a uniform purple and bubbles start to form.
  15. Strain the warm blueberry-cream mixture through a mesh sieve into a bowl containing white chocolate chips, then whisk until smooth.
  16. Let the ganache cool to room temperature before filling the tart shells.
  17. Spoon the cooled ganache into the prepared tart shells.
  18. Freeze the filled tarts for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow the ganache to set firmly.
