Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Prepare the tart crust by mixing flour, butter, sugar until crumbly.

Add cold water gradually to form a dough, then chill for 30 minutes.

Roll out the dough and cut into circles to fit a muffin tin.

Press the dough circles into the muffin tin and prick the bottoms with a fork.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until combined.

In a saucepan, heat milk and heavy cream over medium heat until just simmering.

Gradually pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously.

Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove lumps.

Pour the filling into the prepared crusts, filling each about 3/4 full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the tops are slightly caramelized.
