Berries Cheese Tarts

Cheese tart is not something new to us, but you must be surprised if i admit that i never taste a cheese tart before. Well, that's because I'm preferred the cheese in savoury instead of sweet. Anyway, it doesn't matter now, coz I'm going to have my very first cheese tart here!! And I'm sure I'm going to love it!!

4. Sift in the flour and knead it into a dough.    筛入面粉揉成一面团即可。
5. Chill the dough in the fridge for about an hour.    麵团冷藏1小時。
6. Grease the tart molds. Place the paper strip in the center of every mold.    塔模抹些油，中间置入一张油纸条以方便把烤好的塔拿起。
7. Cut the dough into 17 pieces (~28g each) and roll into balls    面团割成17份(每份约28克)，揉成球状。
8. Place a ball in the center of tart mold. Use the finger to press and shape the tart crust.    把一份球面团放再模的中间，以手指按压造型。
