My best melt-in-mouth Pineapple tarts (enclosed version) 最酥的凤梨酥

I would said pineapple tarts rank number 1 among all CNY cookies, do you agree?
As a Hokkien, we called pineapple as "Ong Lai", means bring good luck. So every CNY, i must bake some pineapple tarts, if not bake some, i afraid our "Ong" will not come, hehehe..

IMG_7190 copy

Thanks to my Malay friend who shared this super easy pineapple tart pastry with me, which only requires four ingredients, butter, condensed milk, flour and egg yolks..
And I love this pastry very much, it is simply melt-in-mouth !! Maybe you have your own melt-in-mouth recipe, but this is the best melt-in-mouth pineapple tarts version that I have tried so far..
The highlight of this pastry recipe is using very ordinary condensed milk or sweetened creamer  which everyone should have some at home especially prepare Milo drink..

IMG_7113 copy

This year, i also started to make my own pineapple filling..and i prefer only use two ingredients i.e pienapple and sugar, not adding other spices like cloves or cinnamon..I just want pure pineapple fragrance..

IMG_7098 copy

At first i bought the ordinary pineapple (i think it is Morris pineapple) from market , only cost me RM 1 for each (like shown in the below picture, without the outer skin)..Last two days, Giant supermarket had the promotion of Josephine pineapple which only cost RM 0.78 for each, i quickly bought few..After tasted pineapple filling from two difference types, i feel Josephine pineapple tasted nicer than the ordinary one..more pineapple aroma..

pineapple filling

Since my family prefer less sweet pineapple filling, usually i will bake pineapple tarts before last few days to CNY, since less sugar it will not last too long..

IMG_7104 copy

And this pastry is not sticky at all, easy to be handled..Also i prefer to use those ordinary butter (like Bxxx brand) , so no strong buttery taste over take the pineapple aroma..

This time, i did not make the usual Nastar shape, i made into ball and enclosed version.

This beautiful vase given by Jessie just came in the right time, perfect to decorate with some flowers..

Once I have updated my blog, I will credit it back to your entry ok?

Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe and true enough even we added condense milk it is not sweet at all..

I say, Sonia! Now too late for me to try this recipe. Never mind, I KIV for next year CNY. Meantime can still make after CNY hor?

Mich Piece of Cake said...

I love this 4 ingredient version, will book mark to try next year.

QembarDelites said...

I love this version, easy to arrange in containers and wont stick to each other like the open type:) Looks lovely too!

MeRy said...

Nice cookies..

Caca said...

what a coincident, my Malay neighbour had just given me the same pineapple tarts that look like yours. It was her homemade by her. Maybe this is Malay style of pineapple tarts. And, I just know, Malay also make pineapple tarts for their Raya.

MK Moon said...

hi sonia, i like very strong buttery and the skin must very 松。So which portion of the ingredient i need to adjust?

Angel @ Cook.Bake.Love said...

Sonia,

I tried ur recipe, made twice, each time half a recipe. Hopefully I have time to blog about it.

First time I made into open tart (flower shape) and enclosed tart. Second time I made into Nastar. I think the pastry tasted best with Nasta shape. :)

For the second time I also added little bit more flour as my family prefers firmer texture. This recipe is really very simple and fragrant, thanks for sharing.

Yannie said...

Looks so beautiful and delicious. I really love this melt in mouth pineapple tarts.

Tamara said...

this is fantastic, i love pineaple

Tracy Low said...

好想吃你亲手做的黄梨饼哦。哇咔咔卡~

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Alice, i tried once made open tart using the wooden press mould, but quite hard to handle..So i would said this pastry best for Nastar and enclosed type.

MK Moon, this pastry is already 松, use good butter if you want it taste more buttery..

Zoe said...

Hi Sonia,

Hi Sonia,

These pineapple tarts look wonderful. With so many interesting pineapple tart recipes to choose, I would like try baking more of the enclosed ones too in the future. This recipe will be the first in my list to try...

Appreciate if you can link up your pineapple tarts post with us!

All you need to do is to 1) mention Little Thumbs Up in your post and link back to Bake for Happy Kids or/and my little favourite DIY 2) submit your details on my Acar post and your link will be on my post :D

Cheers!

Joelyn Wong said...

Hi Sonia, can we used Malaysia's condensed creamer (coz condensed milk not available)?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Joelyn, yes, just use normal sweetended creamer like F&N, teapot brands..

Hi Sonia, as I have some leftover pineapple jam from CNY, I baked these today. They are really really really melt in the mouth and really really yummylicious!!!! Thanks for sharing this recipe with us!!!

Hi Sonia,

I love this recipe of yours!

Btw, do you have any idea how long can I keep the pineapple tarts at room temperature?

And can I keep them in the fridge?

Thanks

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Anonymous (may I know you name pls..), you can store in room temperature about 1 week (make sure cool the tarts completely before stoting), later than that, store in the fridge since there is no preservative added.

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia,

Thanks for your response.

Can I store in the fridge after it cool down?

Will it affect the texture and taste of the pineapple tarts?

Thanks

Hi Sonia

I'm also pineapple love. Would like to try your recipe. I have doubt on this:1 egg yolk +1tsp milk, for egg wash

May i know what kind of milk u are using?

this is one of my family's favorite even for my the most-picky-for-pineapple tart- sister.
i wonder what the different between enclosed version and pineapple tart roll.
Really thanks for this wonderful and simple recipe!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Hi all, usually I either use liquid full cream milk or fresh milk..,

Hi Sonia..

Do you really pour the condense milk onto the weighing machine ?

Maybe you can advise how many Tablespoon is 100g of condense milk?

Most canned milk are measured by ml, right

Hi.
I love reading your blog.. Please continue to share your awesome recipes...

I made the pineapple tarts today and they were delicious. However my pastry cracked after baking... Any idea what's wrong with it? Sorry still a newbie.

Thanks
Amy.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Yun Ying foo, I use salted and is a buttercup brand .

Amy, I suspect maybe your oven temp is high, try to reduce temperature or put one level lower.

Hi Sonia,
I have bake the third time and all my colleagues like it. I use Top Flour instead of plain flour. It's melts . Thank you.

Hi, if im using store bought pineapple jam, how long can I store the tarts at room temperature since the jam will.have more sugar but the pastry contains condensed milk? Am afraid if I store it in the fridge the texture might change? I've never tried pineapple tarts recipe with condensed milk, previous years I made those with icing sugar :) will like to try yours this year. Searching for a good melt in mouth tart recipe!

Kelly said...

Hi Sonia,

Looking for melt in the mouth type...Thanks for sharing.

How do u measure the condense milk? Normally is in ml. Which brand u using? Please advise . Thank you :)

Hi, I just tried your recipe. It was fantastic! My hubby and kids love it!

Hi there,

I tried this recipe and unexpectedly love it ! Only thing was that the dough was too soft to handle, added abit more flour but they still ended up very yummy ! Thank you for sharing :D - Kylene

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, your pineapple tarts look very very yums! Inspires me to try. May i check with you: is the temperature of the jam and dough very important, like i shouldnt handle or over roll them ? I read somewhere people turn on the aircon as they do it.

Also, can i use the electric mixer to do all the mixibg required.

Lastly, may i do the jam first then fridge it for a day or two before taking it out at room temp when i work on the dough?

Thanks in advance for your generous advice!

Btw, i used your kaya recipe and it was an instant hit among family! We dun buy kaya anymore :)

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, I would like to know if the centre part (hard core) of the pipineapple can be used or do we have to discard it? While cooking the pineapple jam in medium fire do we need to cover the pot? Thank you in advance for your advice.

Unknown said...

looks nice and yummy, will try this :)

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, followed your recipe but the crust is slightly biscuit like and not instantly melt in the mouth kind. And they cracked even though I adjusted the 2nd batch temperature to 150 degree at only 15 min.
Do u need to soften butter first? 100 or ml or Condensed milk?
I use only 3rd yolk for egg wash.
advice pls. Thanks.
Ps: I'm new to all such blogs etc so do not know how to get an account hence select anonymous.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Anonymous,
To answer your questions:-
1. Don't need to work in air-cond room, just room temp will do. Ya, don't over work the dough.
2. Yes, you can use electric mixer to make the dough.
3. Yes, you can make the jam in advance.
4. I never add in the hard core of pineapple when making the jam. But I heard some people add in that too. Do not cover the wok while cooking the jam.
5. Yes, you need to let butter in room temperature and soften. I use weighing machine to weight the condensed milk.
6. Please add some milk into egg yolk when you preparing the egg wash.

Hi Sonia

I really love the texture of the tart but do not like the milky taste. May I know what can I add to replace the condensed milk / sweetened creamer. Thank you.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Hi anonymous, I suggest to use not so buttery butter (not pure butter), like I used only Buttercup brand (this is not butter actually).

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

anonymous, so you will not taste so milky..

Hi Nasi Lemak Lover....i like to try your recipe for this Lunar New Year but can i change condensed milk with milk powder? or nor use milk at all. because my daughter have milk allergy. should i change the recipe?
Thank you so much

Dear Sonia,

I tried the recipe and like it a lot. However, the crust tends to be a little dry. Any advice to make it more moist or I need to adjust the temp?

Isabel said...

Hi I baked these but they didn't melt in the mouth... Why so? :(

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia,

This is Yoon again... This time I am trying to make this fantastic pineapple tarts for my family. I am facing few challenges, I hope you can help.

1) I knitted the dough until it didn't stick on my fingers and bowl ( I wonder if I had over worked on it). After making few pieces, I found the dough started sticking on my fingers, break up and melt. I wonder if my hands are too warm.

2) after cooling down the tarts... I Placed the tarts into the container, I found the layer of eggs wash peeled off easily on next day. It is normal or I had done wrong on certain part?

Thank you for your time and kind attention.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Sharon, maybe you should try with diff temp.

Yoon, maybe you can put the dough in the fridge for 30mins before you handle them?
Did you put some milk with egg yolks for egg wash? if only egg yolk or maybe attached with some egg white to it, after baked, it tend to turn hard and easily peel off.

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia,

Thank you for your reply. It is really helpful. I did tried to put the dough into the fridge but the result is the same. I wonder how long should I knit on the dough?

Sorry to trouble you again.

Kind regards,

Hi Sonia, thank you for your suggestion on Buttercup. Will try it.

105% melt in the mouth.
A keeper recipe for sure every cny in future!

Will different size yolk from eggs make a difference? What size did you use? I thought of using big eggs size 65gm.

Jayne said...

Hi Sonia,
I came across your blog while looking for pineapple tart recipes and i found yours interesting because it only requires 4 ingredients.

However, my dough turned out quite yellowish as compared to yours, and its not as smooth. In fact, it feels as if its gonna crumble any minute as I roll it into a ball!

Please help!
- Jayne

Unknown said...

When I was preparing the dough I wasn't sure I like the smell cas it has a strong condensed milk smell.. After baking the milky smell was gone and it tasted beautifully. It has a nice flaky ( not so much of melt in the mouth), crumbly( not the type tag it all falls apart) and most importantly it is my kinda taste. No more from Bengawan. Thank you! This is the second recipe that I have tried from your blog and it all turned out great.

Mickey said...

Hi Sonia, I followed your recipe & turned out pretty good. Thank you for sharing.

GladysChua said...

Hi Sonia, thanks so much for sharing the recipe! It's definitely for keeps! Everyone loves the pineapple tart even though this is my first attempt at baking cookies! In the end, I repeated this 3 times, although my 2nd batch turned out poor due to my ingredients - i tried to reduce the sugar but realised my pineapples were too sour and my butter was left out a little too long at room temperature before mixing (kept this batch for my mom who loves sour stuff! :) ). My 3rd batch was also slightly sour but better..I find it a bit difficult to control the sweetness of my pineapple jam. Somehow when I try it when it is hot, it tasted sweet but when it is cool it is much more sour.

Syirin J said...

Hi Sonia,

Looking forward to try this recipe over the weekend! Just a question, do I need to rest the pastry dough for a while? Thanks!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Syirin, don't need to rest the pastry.

Anonymous said...

Thanks for sharing.

Melanie said...

Hi Sonia, I would like to try on your receipe but there is a coupld of questions that I will need to ask before i begin..

1- Butter (buttercup) must it be in room temperature?

2- After I have prepare the pineapple filling how long shall I wait before I could start to shape it into the ball size or it is advisable to keep it overnight in the fridge before i begin?

Debbie said...

Hi, I made these and they were delicious and so easy! Could this dough be used for the roll out and cutout pineapple tarts.you know the ones where you use the tart cutter? Please do let me know coz my pineapple jam is in the fridge ready n waiting! Thnx!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Melaine, yes, let it soften in room temperature. No don't need to wait, straight away can use for shaping.

Debbie, yes, you can use to roll out or use tart cutter, but advise to keep the dough in the fridge to slightly harden it then easy to handle.

Hi Sonia,I try to look for the buttercup butter from Ntuc. There is only type of buttercup. Can you please advise is this the one you used for the pineapple tarts? I'm not sure if this buttercup is the salted type since it is not clearly stated on the lable.

Hi Sonia, can I make the dough and keep in the fridge and use it when needed? By doing this, will it affect the taste and texture of the pineapple tarts? Thanks!

Unknown said...

I just had my first attempt to make these pineapple tarts using your recipe. It was a success and they taste heavenly. Please say a big thank you to your Malay friend for the recipe and thank you for sharing it on your blog. I'm used to eat this kind of tart so know what to expect. Your recipe is a sure keeper. The pastry was buttery, soft, light and crunchy. I made my jam with the canned pineapple with cloves, cinnamon, sugar, honey and black syrup. I fried it a bit burn like the way I like it. We definitely make it again. Have a good Chinese New Year and Kong Xi Fatt Chai. Cheers, Jaime Loh of Norway.

Unknown said...

hi. Sonia..
Love to see your blog...& cookies making...wow im so impressed your cooking skill.

i had cooked the pineapple jam on Sat, 24 Jan. Its really took me many hours to cook...cos i accidentally half close the lid.... --"

i have cooked the jam and going to do the pineapple tart on this coming Sunday 01 Feb. If i use your pastry recipe, the pastry can last till CNY. The pastry recipe contain condensed milk. About 2 weeks plus...counting from 01 Feb..

Need your advice.

pamy

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

teo ai li, if just keep for 1-2 days is ok but too long , I am afraid it will affect the taste and texture.

pamy, I will not advise you to make it so soon , 1 week before CNY then is good. Otherwise keep in the fridge but it will slightly affect the taste.

Peng said...

Thank you for sharing this recipe. I made it yesterday - very nice !!!

teo ai li said...

Hi Sonia, thanks for your reply. Sorry one more question : I realised when I arranged them in the container, the bottom layer got slightly crushed because they are so melt in the mouth. It is a good problem but it is not so presentable as gifts. So how should I avoid this? Thanks

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Teo ai li, maybe you can place them into individual small paper liner

Hi Sonia can I base on this receipe to make the open tart?

I used SCS butter and my tarts turned soft from 3rd day onwards not as crisp anymore :( Does thsi also happen to Buttercup butter? Please kindly advice.

Thank you!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Winnie, yes you can do it with open type, if dough too soft to be handled, keep in fridge before shaping.

Kaylyn, if you meant egg wash, then is 1tsp milk but not condensed milk .

Anonymous, no I don't have this problem when I use buttercup butter.

Hi Sonia,

This looks fantastic, will try to make it here from HK. However, the store-sold pineapple filling available here is nowhere near those in Malaysia/ Singapore :(. I might need to make my own - may I ask how much will you yield the filling with 1.5kg pineapple used?

Cheers,
Tammy

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Tammy, did you mean 1.5kg pineapple that haven't cook into pineapple jam? if this is the case, then you should get less than 100pcs.

Sorry for the confusion. Wanted to know how much in weight will the pineapple jam be (after cooking) by using 1.5kg pineapple.

Cheers,
Tammy

Hi Sonia,

Can I use cake flour as a substitute of plain/all-purpose flour? Will the texture be different?

Many thanks,
Vanessa

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Vanessa, yes you can use cake flour, it will give you more fine texture.

Hi Sonia I have tried your receipe... the tarts tasted fantastic thanks for sharing. ... However I noticed that my tarts do cracking a bit here and there is it becos oven temperature too high? Thanks

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

cantigal, too high the temp might be the cause, also uneven mixing of the dough.

Hi Sonia
I bought 3kg of pineapple, after peeling, cutting, juicing N cooking. I am left with 300g.
My paste is more brown than what you show in your post. Is that overcooked? How to tell when e paste is cooked just nice?

What is the impact of undercooking n overcooking the paste?

Sorry so many questions..Thx for sharing!!

Hi sonia, can i use self raising flour instead?

Hi Sonia,
Do i have to leave the butter in room temp before mixing with the milk? Thanks.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Anonymous, No not advise to use self raising flour .

Biling, yes, butter have to in room temp before beat with condensed milk.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Cecilia, yes , I removed the core. If time allow, I will make a post on step by step on how to prepare pineapple jam.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Yen Ling Ngui, no don't need to fridge the dough, maybe you can bake like butter cookies which sprinkle sugar on top.

Hi sonia, im new to baking and i have tried out ur receipe. However the dough is sticky and soft. What did i miss out or do wrong? Can u advice how and what i should do and prevent this. Thank you. Adeline

Ling said...

I tried many recipes... I hv mentioned in another comment earlier my family, relatives n friends still prefer yrs...tqvm

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Adeline, if you follow exactly the recipe, you shouldn't get a sticky dough.

*faith said...

Hi Sonia! If i want to half the qty of pineapple tarts, do i half the qty of the ingredients for the crust? Thanks! :)

tarat said...

Hi Sonia, great recipe thanks! however my dough tears and breaks very easily when I'm rolling it. I've chilled the dough, and followed the measurements. should the butter be completely melted when mixed with the condensed milk?

Unknown said...

Hi,

I've tried your pineapple tart dough recipe (with store bought filling) and it was very well received. It was the first time I tried to make pineapple tarts and having these turn out well was certainly very encouraging. I am going to make pineapple tarts every year from now on and will try to make the filling on my own too. a BIG THANK YOU for sharing! Happy new year!

lisa said...

can i substitute condensed milk with full cream milk? or can i not put the condensed milk ?thanks

Star Anise said...

hi sonia,
i tried your recipe today and they are absolutely amazing! Flaky with soft crumbs but still have structural integrity when taking multiple bites. I highly recommend your recipe to everybody. My only concern is that i had to amp up my oven temp to 350°f (180°c) because the oven temo stated on ur recipe simply melted my first batch instead of cooking/crisping it. but other than that, everything was awesome! thank you!

Hi Sonia, is it advisable to use SCS salted butter to replace Buttercup brand? Does salted and unsalted butter matters?

Unknown said...

Hi Sonia, is it advisable to use SCS salted butter to replace Buttercup brand? Does salted and unsalted butter matters?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Juliana, yes you can use other type of butter , but I got feedback from other readers that using SCS butter the dough is too soft, you can try with Anchor . I would advise to use salted butter .

Den said...

Hi Sonia,
How about using Golden Churn butter. Any feedback?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Michele , so far no feedback of using this butter. Why not you try out and let us know the outcome Thanks

Unknown said...

Hi Sonia this will be my first time making these pineapple balls, planning to cream the butter and condense milk by hand as I don't have a mixer. Anything to watch out for or take note? And if I were to make smaller balls say 5g of pineapple 7g of pastry, will it affect the final bake? Will it crumble easily due to size?
Thanks in advance

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Evelyn, yes you can use those wooden spatula to cream the butter , no problem . I afraid smaller size it will affect the melt in mouth texture , anyway you can try some to see.

Unknown said...

Hi Sonia, my first time baking and it was terrific. They tasted great! Thanks for your wonderful recipe! Oh by the way I tried 4 g of fillings and 7 g of pastry. They were perfect too, same melt in the mouth texture :)

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Evelyn , Thanks for your feedback .

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, I tried your recipe however my pineapple tarts came out abit dry and didn't have the melt in the mouth texture. I'm not very sure what the reason is it because I might have over beat the dough or smth? Do you have any advise for me? Cause I'm planning to try one more time for this recipe :) thanks

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Anonymous, when you add in flour , do not mix it too long, so long just combine then will do. And for egg wash , only egg yolk is used .

Anonymous said...

Okay I will try again with your advise. Thank you :))

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, may I know how long the duration on each steps below using the mixture?

1. Cream butter and condensed milk till light. (~ mins)
2. Add in egg yolk one at a time, and beat until combine. (~ mins)
3. Mix in flour, mix till become a soft and not sticky dough. (~ mins)

Regard,
Teng

Hello Sonia!
The first time I made Pineapple Tarts with this recipe was 2014 and every year after that, my husband will keep asking me to make! A lot of friends and relatives are a fan of your pineapple tarts too.. :) It is super yummy and it is the only recipe I go to every year.

One question! Recently I have bought good grade green tea powder, will it be appropriate to add into this recipe? If yes, how much?

Thank you very much and blessed Chinese New Year ahead!

Anonymous said...

Hi sonia , i will try to make this next week for coming chinese new year but i have 1 stupid question..if i add grated parmesen cheese on the batter , will it change the texture of melt in mouth? I mean is it still melt in mouth?

Regard
molly.

Anonymous said...

I tried this recipe with two types of butter, i.e GC (in block) and BC. My personal preference is BC as the cookies are more fragrant. Thanks Sonia for your great recipe!

Anonymous said...

Hello. I baked using the Buttercup as recommended in e recipe. . Tarts came out really soft! But don't hv the fragrance of butter... this recipe is definitely great but i'll try with Golden Churn next. Different pple have different preference I guess! In terms of softness, this wins hands down :)

Anonymous said...

Hi sonia..its me again Molly. I have just make pineapple tart with this recipe and guess what ? It came out perfect..i wish i could share the picture of my pineapple tart hehehe..anyway , thanks a lot for the great recipe..

Regard molly.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Molly, great that you love it . You didn't not add Parmesan cheese powder right ?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Roxane, personally I wouldn't add green tea powder .

Anonymous said...

I've try both Sonia ...with and without parmesen cheese powder and both came out perfect..btw the batter with parmesen powder i do reduce 10 g of the flour and my second batter is just like your no more or less... the batter is so easy to handle....soft but not stick to our hand...sooo esay to wrap the filling..again thanks for such a great recipe...i love it so much and can show off with my family and friend..hehehe

Hi Sonia,
Thank you for sharing the recipe with us.
I have 3 questions and I hope you can help me with them.
1. Do we need to refrigerate the dough?
2. If we are making the open face version so we put the pineapple onto the dough before or after baking?
3. Can i use milk maid condense milk?

Thank you

Yours Sincerely,
Rena

Melvin said...

Sonia, I loved your recipe but the tarts I baked, some of them cracked. What can I do to prevent the cracking? Thanks!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Rena, no don't need to chill the dough . For open type, put pineapple filling on the tart then bake together . Yes you can use any brand .

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Melvin, maybe you can move the rack one level down .

Molly, I have seen your post and Thanks for your mentioned .

Unknown said...

Hi Sonia,
This looks amazing. I have never come across a recipe for the pastry that uses condensed milk. Does it make handling the pastry more difficult? My family likes the open faced tarts so I will be making tarts in that shape. Sometimes different recipes are better for certain shapes than others. Thanks for sharing.

Denise said...

Two thumbs up :) Tried this recipe for the first time, and it was a success. Thanks Sonia for sharing the recipe. Wishing you and family a Happy Chinese New Year!!

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Magdalene, it is suitable to make with open tart but only can use pastry mould for easy handling

Unknown said...

do I need to soften the butter in room temperature before mixing?

cfan said...

Hi! I made these yesterday and they were such a success I decided to make another batch today. Only today, the pastry was a little too crumbly and kept cracking as I tried to wrap the filling. I've already added a bit more butter but it's still quite crumbly and I don't want to risk over handling the dough. Any advice?

Thank you so much for this recipe!!

Anonymous said...

Hello Sonia. I would like to thank you for this awesome recipe! It's such a keeper. First attempt was already a success, and I followed your instructions and ingredients to a tee! The dough was easy to handle and it really is melt-in-the-mouth texture :)

Did a second batch today using Buttercup Spreadables (Not the usual paper-wrapped block), texture was very different. More coarse and crumbly, although still tastes good. Surface also more crater-like!

So wanted to share a pointer here. DO NOT attempt to change the butter !!!

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia, i use your recipe made my pineapple tarts. It came out nice and soft on first day. After few days storing it in sealed biscuits container, it turns out soft. It tasted like flour & sticky in your mouth. Is the tarts all spoiled? I m not sure what have i done wrong. From, Cel

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Cfan, did you make any changes after the first success pastry ? Otherwise you have let the pastry in open air for too long and it has dry out .

Cel, I suspect you might not let the tarts completely cool down before storing . The tarts have to really cool down ( few hours in room temp ) before storing.

Cheryll's Corner said...

Thanks Sonia for this great recipe. I had tried it this evening and all my visitors love it. This is a good recipe to keep. i have shared on Baking corner as well as my facebook with credit to your blog. Thank you once again

Mrs Soh said...

As a popular baking blog I can't believe you were ignorant enough to believe that buttercup is butter. Its actually margarine, nowhere on the packaging was it stated that its butter. It says luxurious spread and the name buttercup is derived from the name of the species of the flower. Thats why its called 金凤花 in chinese. So basically your tart isn't made using real butter and the homemade pineapple filling does not taste of spices. The only redeeming quality is probably that its melt in the mouth. Definitely something I will not try, and even if I do I will definitely use real butter and add spices to my homemade filling.

Anonymous said...

I tried making this but the dough was too sticky. So I added floor, not sure how much I added. But the jam is good!

Making this is harder than I expected. I was just inspired in making one because I loved the tarts from Bengawan Solo when I went there a few weeks ago.

apple said...

Thank you for this, made them three times already this year alone:) I hope you don't mind, shared this on my blog, with credit and link back to you.

**for those who find the dough too sticky, what works for me is to put on a big piece of cling wrap, loosely cover and gently knead while forming into a ball (flat disc) then I put for a few minutes in the fridge to rest before weighing and forming into a ball. I also find that while working on it, it'll get sticky again when it's not cold anymore so I divide the dough into two and work with them one at a time. hope it helps...
