'In this video I will show you how to make Chinese egg tarts. Usually these are found in dim sum restaurants or Chinese bakeries. It has a flakey, buttery, puff pastry crust and a slightly sweet egg custard filling.  ~~RECIPE~~  DOUGH:    *Butter dough:  - 1 cup all-purpose flour  - 1 3/4 stick (which also equals 3/4 cup + 2 Tbsp) cold, unsalted butter    *Water dough:  - 1 cup all-purpose flour  - 2 egg yolks (save the egg whites for the filling!)  - 1/4 cup cold water  FILLING:    *Simple syrup:  - 1/3 cup sugar  - 1/2 cup water    *Egg custard:  - 3 large eggs + reserved egg whites from earlier  - 1 cup milk  - 1 tsp vanilla extract  OTHER INFORMATION:    *Puff pastry method: 3x4x4    *Oven temperature: 400°F for approx. 25-30 min (time will vary--cook until crust is light golden brown!)    *This recipe yields approx. 12-14 tarts    *Store the egg tarts in the refrigerator & best to eat while HOT! re-heat at 400°F for 5-7 minutes!    *Tart mold and cookie cutter is 3\" diameter    *Individual tart molds were purchased at Bed Bath & Beyond for 0.79 each!      I originally learned this recipe from http://tinyurl.com/o7g4dck. But with my own tweaks and changes, I formulated this new recipe. Hope you enjoy!  Music: www.incompetech.com'
