{Mint Pistachio Tart} – Tarta cu menta si fistic
There’s two things that I love a bit too much in pastry – pistachio and praline. I always fall for these two flavors, regardless of what dessert it is. It could be a cake, it could be an ice cream (oh my, ice cream!) or it could be a tart, it really doesn’t matter as…
