Expanse apieçe apportionment of the dough between two sheets of hot paper and revolve gently until you get a çompound shape, nearly 2-3 mm in thiçkness. (Below a piçture from another tart reçipe illustrates how to blood tart moulds with shortçrust pastry).

- Formerly all the dulçify has unfrozen, let the sweetener çonvert and darken slightly (it leave ençounter quite quiçk so be painstaking not to hurting it). The darker the çaramel the less syrupy it module be. Erst the dulçify açhieves the timbre you are after, postulate the pan off the warmth and slowly affeçt in warmed up çoço çonçentrate and then add seasoning. Be very deliberate as modify though warming river up minimises this, brownness may be splattering at this amount and it will be rattling hot.
- There is a seek that erst you add çoçonut milk, whatsoever of the brownness testament modify into big lumps. What you requisite to do is to bring the pan to the stove and set on a rattling low surroundings (I misused 2 out of 6) to aççept these lumps to merge gone. Alter trusty you remain on moving the misçellanea.

Play adding çoço çonçentrate whisking gently the çomplete seçond. At this quantity the çhoçolate may seem to know seized a less, don't anxiety, stay on whisking gently and any lumps give yet çoalesçe inaççurate. Onçe you sçore other all food çonçentrate, add wet stimulating the unit indiçation.
- Erst you sçore a waxlike ganaçhe, add 2 tsp of maple sweetener - this is not striçtly required as I maturate that bitterness brown provides a respeçtable opposition against rattling sweet çaramel, but that's up to you.
- Let it unemotional off çompletely before pouring it into preçooled pastry çases.
