For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie, the group is baking the Parisian Apple Tartlet, selected by Jessica of My Baking Heart.
When I heard we were making a Parisian Apple Tartlet, I thought about skipping this week. I kind of assumed the tartlet would involve making some sort of tart dough and an apple-pie type filling and I just didn't feel like exerting a whole lot of effort. Then I opened the cookbook and saw the picture and thought, this looks cool. Then my eyes landed on the recipe. Am I reading this right? FOUR ingredients and very few steps? Huh? You better believe I wasn't going to sit this one out!
So in a matter of fifteen minutes, I had my two little tartlets assembled. Many of the group were trying out pears and peaches and other fruits, but I decided to stick with the apple. And here's what it looked like before I popped it in the oven.
They smelled so great and I was still in shock over how little I had just done for these cute little tartlets. They lost some of their color and weren't all that impressive fresh out of the oven, but a drizzle of caramel syrup and some ice cream on top did the trick! They were delicious and I'll definitely make these again.
For the recipe, go check out My Baking Heart.

I just love that perfect scoop of ice cream sitting on top with the sauce drizzling down it. The whole thing looks divine. I haven't made mine yet but I'm planning on having one for dessert this evening.

Great job! I love your photos of your beautiful tartlets. Wish I'd thought to throw a little caramel on mine :)
These are gorgeous! It is amazing just how easy they are to make...loved them.
Your tart is GORGEOUS! So funny - I had the same thought about this being too much trouble when I first saw a tart was picked. But after I read the recipe I had the same reaction - no way I'm skipping this one! Maybe the dacquiose :-) This tart is definitely a keeper!
Oh man! I'll take 2 of the last picture please. Heavy on the caramel and ice cream! YUM!
