Pastry Puff Rum Egg Tart

I love egg tarts very much. Actually I'm still experimenting the making of egg tart and not yet found the perfect ingredients for the skin. So, I'm using pastry puff instead for time being. I think pastry dough can be easily found at hypermarket. So, for those who are too tired to make the dough ; just grab some from the supermarket ! These tarts making me thought of "Pushing Daisy" the drama series. They making lots of pie in the shop. Oh yeah, I love that story! I wonder when is the 2nd season for it? Very much looking forward.....
