Method
- Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F).
- Roll out the puff pastry and cut into circles to fit a tart pan. Press into the pan and trim the edges.
- In a saucepan, combine milk, water, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then remove from heat.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, vanilla, and cinnamon. Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the egg mixture, stirring constantly.
- Pour the custard into the prepared tart shells.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until the custard is set and golden.
- While the tarts bake, prepare the caramel by heating sugar, water, and lemon juice until golden. Pour over the tarts before adding the melted chocolate drizzle.
