Hôm nọ còn vài em mâm xôi, nên mình làm tart theo kiểu nhanh gọn lẹ.
Dùng vỏ hoành thánh để làm đế, chỉ cần cho vài em vào khuôn cupcake rồi nướng trong lò 5-10 phút là lấy ra dùng được.
Phần nhân bên trong thì dùng thơm xay với wipping cream. Rồi cho vài em mâm xôi lên trên.
Bánh này ăn liền, nên khi bỏ nhân vào là ăn liền thì vỏ bánh còn dòn kết hợp với hương vị của thơm và mâm xôi, ngon mát rất phù hợp cho những ngày hè.

Với kiểu này thì bạn gái nào cũng làm được hết, có thể thay mâm xôi bằng dâu tây, nho, kiwi...Loại trái cây nào cũng có thể làm được.
