That is, 2.5 oz of butter is incorrect. The proportion of fat to flour for tart shell should always be at least half fat to flour. Any less than that and you'd get a piece of rock for your pastry.

I only have a few words to add, and you have to believe me. Mascarpone cheese can definitely become your secret ingredient too. It is just the perfect ingredient to use to make delicious desserts, in no time, such as in this recipe. I use it over and over (you might remember my strawberry tartlets here and there). In a few words, this dessert is made of a coconut-flavoured mascarpone cream topped with freshly cut strawberries and surrounded with strawberry coulis. With this, I do not know why my brother would still hate coconut! [...] [...] Do you know of a nicer, softer, more satisfying texture than the one you can find in this white subtle cheese?
