Blackberry Tart

This flavorful blackberry tart recipe is made with tangy quark, along with earthy cinnamon and rich dark chocolate. It’s so tasty, fresh and creamy.
Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:20 minutes
Total Time:30 minutes
Servings:8 slices

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 4 sheets ready rolled pastry
  • 7 ounces quark
  • 1 ½ tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 8 ounces fresh blackberries
  • 1 ounce dark chocolate melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Add butter and honey to a small sauce pan, melt over low heat. Brush the pastry sheets with butter mixture.
  • Bake the pastry for 20 minutes, let cool.
  • Whip quark to soft peaks, add cinnamon and sugar. Mix well. Mash half of blackberries and add to the quark mixture. Spread the mixture on top of the cooked pastry. Add the rest of blackberries on top.
  • Drizzle the tart with chocolate and serve.

Notes

  • Quark is naturally fat-free and therefore better than cream cheese, mascarpone, or ricotta cheese. Along with tarts, it can be used in cheesecakes, dips, bread baking, and mousse.
  • This recipe or any fruit tarts are best served fresh and consumed within 6 hours of preparation.
  • Do not store this dessert for long. The flaky pastry tends to get soggy overnight and ruins the overall taste.
  • Toasted almonds make a crunchy French-style garnish.
