I peeped it in some kind of overseas, in my opinion, English transfer, added some decorations from dough and it turned out great holiday cakes for meats filled with meat.

The filling for custard shortcrust pastry should be fully prepared; never put raw ingredients into it - the baking will fall apart and will flow. The second important point is to make an incision on the patties so that there is an outlet for steam, otherwise the hot air itself will make a hole in the dough itself, and believe me, according to the law of meanness, it will be in the wrong place.
