For this recipe, I stuck with egg yolks, evaporated milk, and sweetened with condensed milk to give it a sugary but custard-like body.

When I tried it for the first time at a local community market, I fell in love with it instantly. I wanted to make them by myself. I found many different recipes and methods on the internet, but I decided to use my own custard recipe. Hong-Kong style egg tarts are probably my favorite pastry.
Steps to make My Egg Tarts:
- Preheat the oven to 240°C.
- Tightly roll up one sheet of Puff Pastry, then roll up another sheet around it continuously to make a log. Slice into 12 discs.
- Grease muffin cups if required. Flatten each pastry disc with your hands, form into a cup shape, and place into each cup. Press and stretch the pastry to cover the cup to the top, making the pastry evenly thin.
- Make custard. Place Egg Yolks, Vanilla Extract, Sugar & Flour in a saucepan and combine well. Add warmed Milk and mix well. Cook over a medium to low heat, stirring constantly, until custard thickens.
- *Note: The custard can be made in the microwave. Place all ingredients in a heat-proof bowl and whisk well to combine. Then cook in the microwave, occasionally whisking, until the mixture thickens.
- Pour the custard into each pastry cup. Place in the oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until pastry is golden and crispy, and the custard is browned. - *Note: Every oven is different, find the right temperature and cooking time for your oven.
- Leave to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes then move to a cooling rack. Sprinkle some Ground Cinnamon on top if you like, and enjoy cold or warm.
And the best part is…they can be made at home. On a lightly floured surface, trim the ends of the dough to make sure they're even, then cut the log into thirty ½-inch slices. Place each slice into the cavity of an egg tart mold or muffin. The Hong Kong egg tarts I've had in SF and in Hong Kong always had a puff pastry kind of crust so next time I'll use puff pastry. I had to use almost an extra stick of butter for.
