Now we all know how to make pastry (or buy it) so I will just tell you what you need:

6 oz short crust pastry for this recipe, sweet or not depending on your taste.

Filling:

• 8 oz Cottage or Curd Cheese – whichever you can buy
• 2 oz  Sugar
• 2oz  Currants
• 1 Egg
• 2oz  Melted Butter
• Pinch of Cinnamon
• Pinch of Nutmeg (if liked) I used ginger and nutmeg

Oven 220 C 425 F  or gas mark 7

This recipe makes 18 small tarts so an 18-hole tartlet tin greased.

Make your pastry and roll out quite thinly then cut into rounds to fit your patty tin.  Place into the tins.  Mix together all the ingredients until well combined and fill your pastry lined tins.

Bake for approx 15 minutes until the pastry is cooked and the filling is bubbling slightly.

You can serve these hot or cold either way they are delicious with tea.
