Koshnichki (Walnut Mini Tarts)

Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 180°C using top and bottom heat (no fan).

2

In a bowl, combine the ingredients for the dough(soft butter, sugar, baking powder, oil, and flour). Mix until a smooth dough forms.

3

Place the dough in the fridge while you prepare the filling (about 10–15 minutes).

4

In a separate bowl, combine all the filling ingredients and mix until well blended.

5

Grease about 14 mini tart molds. Press the dough evenly into each mold, covering the base and sides and leaving enough space for the filling.

6

Spoon the filling into each tart shell.

7

Bake in the center of the oven for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.

8

Allow to cool slightly, then dust with icing sugar before serving.
