If you're not too into chocolate, I suggest an apple tart for Valentine's Day (or not).
Start with the dough. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Mix for a few seconds to combine everything well. Add the butter cut into pieces and mix again to achieve a crumbly texture. Add the vanilla extract and the eggs, and mix until a ball of dough forms. If necessary, gradually add 1 or 2 tablespoons of cold water (I needed 2 tablespoons of water).
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This will make it easier to roll out.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Peel the apples, core them, and cut them into small pieces. Place them in a large skillet with the butter and sugar and simmer for 25-30 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally. Add the cinnamon and vanilla extract, mix well, and let cool.
Preheat the oven to 170°C, fan mode.
Take the dough out of the fridge and divide it into 2.
Roll out half of the dough quite thinly (2-3 mm thick) and line the tart pan. Use the rolling pin to lift it by rolling the dough onto it. Trim the excess edges.
Evenly distribute the filling over the tart crust.
Roll out the remaining dough thinly (half was enough for me) and cut out small hearts using a cookie cutter. Place them on the filling.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the pastry is golden.
Finally, let it cool, then unmold onto the serving dish and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
