Portuguese Milk Tarts, Queijadas de Leite, are a sweet, creamy, traditional Portuguese dessert recipe made with simple ingredients. With the holidays quickly approaching I wanted to share a traditional Portuguese dessert that you’ll find at every family gathering.
This Portuguese dessert recipe features a delicately spiced flavor and uses pantry ingredients like egg yolks, flour, and cinnamon to create a one-of-a-kind pastry. Try your hand at making these irresistibly delicious custard treats with trademark caramelized tops and flaky, buttery puff pastry.

Press into a greased 22 cm/ 8.7 " tart pan. I use a measuring cup around the edges to get a good defined angle in the base of the crust. Bake for 10 minutes. While the crust bakes, prepare the frangipane filling. Place the butter and sweetener in the bowl of your stand mixer and beat until light and fluffy.
