Ingredients

  • For the Crust:
  • - 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • - 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • - 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • - 1 large egg
  • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Filling:
  • - 2 cups heavy cream
  • - 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Decoration:
  • - Assorted fruits, such as berries and kiwi
  • - Powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt for the crust. Add the cold cubed butter and using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out two number shapes using number-shaped cookie cutters or templates.
  5. Place the cut-out numbers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.
  6. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  7. Place one of the baked numbers on a serving platter and spread a layer of the whipped cream filling over it. Add some sliced fruits on top of the cream. Place the second number on top and repeat the process.
  8. Decorate the top of the cake with more sliced fruits and dust with powdered sugar.
  9. Chill the cream tart number cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
  10. Slice and serve the cream tart number cake as a stunning and delicious dessert that will impress your guests.
