Ingredients
Dough
2 1/3cup(450g) Gluten-free flour
1/3cup(50g) potatoes starch
3eggs
1 1/3cup(250g) butter
2/3cup(120g) powder sugar
Frosting
2cups(400ml) milk
2packets of vanilla pudding
3/4cup(150g) sugar
1cup(200g) butter room temperature
Instructions
Add all ingredients for dough into a stand mixer and make a dough
Chill in the fridge for about an hour
Preheat oven to 350F
Sprinkle surface often with a little bit of flour and roll out dough. I usually roll it to less than a quoter of ich or less (about 3-5mm/0.2 inch). Store extra dough in a fridge. The cooler dough is less sticky and you can roll it out easier.
Cut out circular shapes and put them into a muffin tin or silicone cups.
Bake for 10 mins, add an extra minute or two if your dough is thicker and need more baking.
Cool down on a wire rack, let cool and store in an airtight container till you are ready to fill and decorate.
Put one cup of milk into a saucepan and start heating it up.
Mix two packets of pudding, sugar and add into an additional cup of milk and whisk it to make it clump-free. Add the mixture into the warm milk in a saucepan and start boiling while stirring to not burn the bottom of a saucepan.
When the pudding is done it's very thick, stirring often to make sure it's smooth while it's cooling. It's important to stir here and there when it is cooling otherwise, you will have clumps in the frosting.
Cool the pudding down and make sure butter and pudding have the same room temperature before combining together.
Whip butter in a separate bowl to make it fluffy and start adding pudding spoonful at a time. That way pudding and butter will incorporate together smoothly and won't clump up.
Butter and pudding have to have the same temperature!!!! If one is cooler than the other, the frosting won't connect properly and it won't be soft.
Pipe your frosting into a cup and decorate with fruit of your choice. You can add clear gelatine to cover fruit as well.
If you are making gelatine, make it as the packaging says and drizzle over fruit carefully to not make cups soggy.
