TOFFEE-COFFEE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Make the filling: Bring the cream and coffee nearly to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low; cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl. Set aside.
• Bring the caramel topping to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Slowly whisk in the cream-coffee mixture until combined. Pour into a large bowl and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for 45 minutes, or until completely chilled.
• Make the cups: Place the pastry shells on an ungreased baking sheet and bake according to the package directions. Transfer to a rack to cool, then pull out the center of the shells with your fingers.
• Place the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on medium power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Pour the toffee bits into a pie plate. Dip the rims of the pastry shells in melted chocolate and then in the toffee. Set aside.
• Beat the coffee mixture with a mixer on medium speed until thickened. Slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar on high until stiff peaks form.
• Assemble the cups right before serving or selling: Spoon the coffee mixture into a large zip-top plastic bag. Press out the air and seal. Snip off a corner; pipe the mixture into the shells. Drizzle with more caramel.

STICKY TOFFEE TARTS

Steps:

• For the filling, put the chopped dates and milk in a pan. Bring to the boil, then set aside for 30 mins.
• To make the pastry, put the butter and flour in a food processor and whizz to fine crumbs. Pulse in the sugar. Mix the vanilla and egg yolk with 1 tbsp water, then dribble in while whizzing, to bring the pastry together. If it doesn't come together, whizz in a trickle more water.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to line 6 individual deep tart tins with an overhang. Prick the bottoms and chill for 20 mins.
• To make the sauce, melt all the ingredients together, then bubble for 2-5 mins until saucy. Cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C/fan 6. Line each tart case with crumpled baking parchment, add some baking beans and blind-bake for 15 mins. Remove paper and beans, and bake for 5 mins more until biscuity. Trim the pastry edges.
• Spoon 1 tbsp of the sauce into each tart case. Mash the reserved date mixture with a potato masher, then tip into a bowl with the softened butter, vanilla, flour, bicarb, almonds, eggs, sugar and treacle. Whisk together with an electric whisk until just combined, then divide between tart cases.
• Reduce oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and bake for 15 mins. Cool a little before turning out. Serve tarts warm topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream and drizzled with sticky toffee sauce.

STRAWBERRY TOFFEE TART

Steps:

• Line a 20cm flan tin with baking parchment. Put the biscuits in a strong food bag and bash with a rolling pin to finely crush them. Tip into a bowl and mix in the melted butter. Press over the base of the tin. Chill for about 30 mins until it feels firm. Slice or halve the strawberries, depending on their size.
• Remove the biscuit base from the flan tin and slide onto a flat serving plate. Put 2 tbsp of the cream in a small bowl with the toffees, then whip the rest until it just holds its shape in soft folds. Fold in the yogurt, then spoon over the biscuit base and cover with strawberries.
• Melt the toffees and cream together in the microwave on Medium for 30 secs-1 min, then stir until it forms a sauce. Drizzle over the tart filling.
• The tart can be chilled for a couple of hours at this stage. Dust with icing sugar before serving.
