 Directions:**This is just a basic creme pâtissiere! But in case you don’t know what that means, let me explain it step by step, and then the next time you see the title ‘creme pâtissiere’ you will know EXACTLY what to do!**1) Bring the cream, milk, butter and vanilla to a boil in a small saucepan.
2) Whip the sugar and egg yolks until they lighten in color, then add in the custard powder and maizena and whip again.
3) Pour the now boiling cream over the egg yolk mixture and whisk well before returning to the pan over medium heat. Continue to whisk for about one minute until the mixture comes to a boil, thickens, and no longer sticks to the bottom of the pan.
4) Transfer to a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and let it chill for about 30 minutes before slowly whisking in the whipped cream. Place the mixture into a piping bag with a small star tip and leave in the refrigerator until ready to use.
5) When the tarts are cooled, pipe alternating dots of the vanilla cream and the orange cream.
