TARTA FINA DE MANZANA {THIN APPLE TART}

1. I had a dilemma with this dessert, ok I´ve made it several times at home but long ago. I thought it was so so so easy to make that I thought it was never going to be posted in my blog and then, the ice cream scoop on tarts. The ones who know me well know that for me, tarts and ice-creams should never go together, basically because I can´t stand an ice cream melting next to a nice tart or soaking a nice sponge cake or simply to get  a chocolate cake and with a yogurt ice-cream next to it. In any case, this is another debate which depends of course on the tastes of each person, but I have to say that I don´t know how but this vanilla ice-cream scoop on top of this simple tart isn´t doing any harm. Let me tell you something though, I didn´t put ice-cream on mine. I got this recipe from Gordon Ramsay.

1. I am not making many desserts lately at home really but a special guest deserved the honor and well, believe me maximun result minimum effort and it´s gorgeous.
