💭 Recipe Tips

• If you want the pie to be flaky, you should use cold butter. Don’t work the dough too much because it can make the top tough.
• Make sure to cook the custard over low heat and stir it constantly so that lumps don’t form. Be patient, because custard gets thicker over time.
• Use only the suggested items to get the real taste. Don’t change important ingredients like the Maraschino cherries or the dried coconut.
• Make an even layer of jam when you spread it so it doesn’t overpower the other tastes. Change the amount to suit your own tastes.
• Let the tart cool all the way down before adding the topping. This makes sure that the cherries and coconut stay in place and keep their good looks.
