All in Pies and Tarts
The crispiest, butteriest crust, gouda cheese, and ripe heirloom tomatoes all melted together in a hot oven then topped with fresh basil. “Oh my god,” was all my husband had to say when he took a bite of this Tomato Gouda Galette. Need I say more?
This cool and creamy tart is an elegant dessert that offers a little something for everyone. Sweet, juicy berries and a vanilla cream cheese filling are surrounded by a buttery, crumbly, chocolate crust satisfying both fruit lovers and chocolate fanatics alike. The color combination makes this perfect for your Fourth of July backyard picnic.
An easy recipe for crispy, buttery, Blueberry Hand Pies. A classic summer treat.
A thin layer of lemon scented marscapone hides beneath those beautiful, sweet strawberries. But the thing that makes this Strawberry Tart so special is the dollop of basil infused whipped cream on top. It’s such an unexpected complement to the berries and adds an extra sense of freshness to the dessert. These tarts would be the perfect way to cap a leisurely Sunday brunch.
These smooth Chili Lime Tarts are that perfect balance of sweet and tart, cool with just a touch of heat. (Just like you wish your boyfriend was.) In the same family as a key lime pie, the sweet shortcrust gives them just a bit more elegance than a graham cracker crust, and that hint of chili adds a bit of sophistication.
A few humble ingredients make for an indulgent entry or side dish you’ll want to make again and again.
