  2. Pour the cream into the tartlets while they are still hot.
  3. Bake the tartlets at 180°C for about 20 minutes.
  4. Allow the tartlets to cool slightly and remove from the mold.

Apple Filling

  2. Pour the apple filling into round silicone molds with a diameter of approx. 6 cm and freeze.

Chocolate Mousse
  1. Beat the sugar and pasteurized egg yolks until fluffy. Stir in warm, dissolved couverture. 
  2. Quickly stir one third of the whipped cream into the couverture egg yolk mixture. Then carefully fold in the remaining cream.
  3. Then carefully fold in the remaining cream.

Plating
  1. Remove the frozen apple filling out of the mold and place it in the middle of the baked, cooled tartlet. Using a piping bag, place dots of the mousse around the apple filling.
  2. Possibly shine the tartlet and decorate with flowers.
