For a richer flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before chopping. This brings out their natural oils and enhances their nutty taste. Don't overmix the pastry dough! Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tougher crust. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined. These tartlets freeze beautifully! Once completely cooled, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw completely before serving. Experiment with different nuts! Pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts would all be delicious in this recipe. A sprinkle of sea salt on top of the baked tartlets adds a lovely contrast to the sweetness.
