Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
2-3 tablespoons cold water
1 ½ cups milk
2 large egg yolks
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
Fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
Edible rose petals (optional)

Instructions

Make the tart crust by blending flour, salt, sugar, and cold butter in a food processor until crumbly. Mix egg yolk and cold water; add to the flour mixture until a dough forms. Chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the chilled dough and fit it into a tart pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes with weights; remove weights and bake an additional 10 minutes until golden.
Heat milk in a saucepan. In another bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar and cornstarch; gradually mix in hot milk. Return to heat until thickened; stir in vanilla and cool completely.
Whip the heavy cream to soft peaks; fold into the cooled custard. Pour custard into the cooled tart shell and top with sliced strawberries and optional rose petals.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
