Egg tart with frozen puff pastry

When these egg tarts came out hot from the oven, it look so tempting and I ate 2 pieces at one go, no wonder my sore throat can not get well till now, hehehe..

I saw Jane's this yummy egg tarts in the afternoon the other day, I feel like want to eat it immediately but there is a type of ingredients that i need to confirm with her. But I still want to eat this egg tart, how? Luckily i recall an egg tart recipe using frozen puff pastry in a blog earlier (sorry, i can't recall the blog name)..And i make a right choice, this egg tart is so yummy, furthermore it is so easy and quick to be prepared..

Anyway, I will still try to make tart pastry one day, it look more authentic and homemade always the best.
