Mix 100 ml milk with sugar, vanilla sugar and pudding powder. Bring the cream and the rest of the milk to the boil. Stir in the pudding powder well and bring to the boil once. Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl with some hot pudding, stir into the rest of the pudding. Cover with foil and let cool off
Let the slices of dough thaw for about 10 minutes side by side. Grease the recesses of a muffin tray (for 12 pieces)
Roll out thin slices of dough on a floured work surface and cut out 2 circles (approx. 11 cm Ø) each. Line muffin troughs with them and press them down a little. Chill for about 10 minutes.
Wash the apricots, dab dry, halve and stone them. Spread the pudding cream in the hollows. Place 2 apricot halves on each
Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 225 °C/circulating air: 200 °C/gas: level 4) for approx. 20 minutes, raising the crème slightly. Allow to cool briefly, then remove from the trays and allow to cool. Dust with icing sugar and eat as fresh as possible
