Ingredients

Crust:

250 g flour

125 g butter

1 spoon bacon drippings

1/2 glass water

dash of salt

Filling:

300 g cottage cheese or ricotta

1-3 spoons milk

3 eggs

1/3 cup grates Swiss cheese

salt and pepper

bacon bits

Directions

I usually start by frying about 150g diced bacon, set aside the bacon bits and make my own bacon dripping.

Mix well all the ingredients for dough. I just do it directly on my cleaned counter, so I can stretch the dough a few times, than roll it, make a ball of dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and leave it in the fridge 5- 6 hours or overnight. Spread it again and cut up rounds with a glass. Arrange the dough at the bottom of muffin pan for the crust.

Filling: Mix the cheese until it becomes creamy (the instructions in the books are to mix it with a wooden spoon - I use my hand mixer). Add the milk. Add eggs one by one and continue to mix. Add the Swiss cheese, salt and pepper. If the mix is too thick add more milk, if it is too runny add more cheese. Add the bacon bits and mix. Fill up the tart crusts 1/3 and bake.

There are no baking instructions, I usually set my oven temperature at 350F and bake for 40-45min (check after 30min - each oven is different).

Serve them still warm.

Bon Appetit!
