Pate Sucree & Linzer Fruit Tarts, Cookies and Pies

Hello Hello Everyone.  These beautiful days we are having are quite refreshing. It makes creating these tarts and pie's extra fun!  We had quite a lot to do today. We received a few demo's from the chef. She started off with rolling out the Pate Sucree and then placing it in our rectangle tart tray. I thought we were making little personal ones but we instead created one great big one. Bigger is Always better! There is more to go around. :)I did create a mini one, the one you see up above.  Its the baby of the bunch.  Here is the rectangular tart I made:

Aww isn't SHE cute :) I love berries so I made sure mine had a ton of them and the Kiwi made for an excellent splash of color.  We then watched the chef demo a Raspberry Linzer Tart.  I didn't make a big one, my partner did, but I made the little one that is next to my mini tart in the first picture. :)  I cant wait to taste it. It is filled with Raspberry cream.  With the leftover dough we all got to make cookies! Those were fun to create. We used our cookie cutters for the first time.  I made a batch of each and filled them up with the raspberry as well.  I cut out little stars and moons from the top so you can see the raspberry cream inside.  Let me know if you like how they look! And if you get to taste them, let me know what you think! Here is the sneak peak........

Tomorrow we will prep for apple strudel's and turnover's. I am itching to get into cakes soo bad! But I will be patient, it will come in its due time. :)

I'm cutting this a little short tonight. I don't have as much to read or study for so I am going to take a mini breaky break! Thank you all so much for tuning in and reading and letting me know your feedback! I love it!

Enjoy your evening and I will be back again tomorrow.

Good night everyone,

Linda
