Oreo Key Lime Tartlets Brulee
- FOR THE CRUST:
- 16 whole Oreo Cookies
- 7 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 4 whole Large Egg Yolks, Room Temperature
- 1 whole Lime, Finely Grated Zest From
- 1/8 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (14 Oz. Size)
- 1/2 cups Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice
- 12 teaspoons Sugar For Brulee Topping
- For the crust:
- You'll need 6 mini (4") tartlet pans with removable bottoms. Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a food processor, finely grind cookies. Add melted butter and pulse until the mixture comes together.
- Butter each tartlet pan, and place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Press about 2 rounded tablespoons of crust mixture into the bottom and up sides of each tartlet pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Remove crusts from the oven and cool completely on a baking rack before filling.
- For the filling:
- Keep the oven at 350 F.
- Combine egg yolks, lime zest and vanilla in your stand mixer bowl. Beat on high speed with the whisk attachment for 8 minutes, until the yolks are pale yellow and fluffy.
- Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk, and continue beating another 7 minutes, or until the mixture is nice and fluffy.
- Add the lime juice and beat well on high for another 2 minutes.
- Fill pie shells to the top, and bake for 5-6 minutes, just until filling is set but will still jiggle slightly when pans are shaken. Refrigerate for 3 hours to chill well.
- When chilled, top each tartlet with 2 teaspoons granulated sugar. With tartlets on the baking sheet, broil them 4-6" from the element on high. Keep an eye on them-just broil them until the sugar begins to caramelize. Remove from the oven and refrigerate, uncovered for up to 1 day ahead, and at least 2 hours before serving.
- Serves 6.
