Raspberry Cream Tart

Raspberry Cream Tart Recipe

The crust for this tart is really more like a cake. Crème fraîche is a thickened cream found in the cheese section of the supermarket.

Ingredients
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 egg, separated
1 cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup crème fraîche
2 cups raspberries
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Combine butter and sugar in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla, 2 whole eggs, plus the white of the third egg. Beat until smooth. Add flour and mix at low speed just until combined.
3. Scrape batter into a 9-inch tart pan, spreading over bottom and up sides of pan to create a rim.
4. Mix egg yolk with crème fraîche and remaining vanilla. Pour over batter and spread just to the raised edge. Place berries on custard. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake until golden brown and edges of custard are set, about 40 minutes. Cool 30 minutes. Serves 8.
