chilled and cut into cubes

¼ cup sugar for the crust

2 tablespoons sugar for the filling

½ teaspoon salt

2 large egg yolks

1 cup milk

2 cups fresh strawberries

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, combine flour, ¼ cup sugar, and salt.
Add chilled butter cubes and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in egg yolks and a few tablespoons of cold water until the dough comes together. Roll the dough and press it into tart pans.
Bake the tart crusts for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool.
In a saucepan, combine milk, 2 tablespoons sugar, and vanilla extract; cook until warm. Gradually whisk in the egg yolks. Pour the mixture into the cooled tarts and top with fresh strawberries before serving.

Ensure that your butter is chilled for a flaky crust. You can also experiment with other fruits for topping.
