    3. Slowly whisk the warm milk into the egg mixture, then pour everything back into the saucepan.
    4. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens into a smooth cream.
    5. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Let cool completely.
    6. Spoon the cooled pastry cream evenly into the tart shells and smooth the tops.
    7. Arrange fresh berries over the cream, gently pressing them in so they stay in place.
