lemon & berries tart
Here is another easy summer dessert that can seem complicated to make but it is easy . Sometimes it's wise to take help from the store and not have to make everything from scratch. Specially when feeding a crowd, participating in a potluck or just visiting someones house and not going empty handed. A variation of this recipe could be buying bavarian cream instead of lemon curd and it would be a berries and cream tart. You could also use different fruits or not as many berries. Possibilities are up to you :) I hope you give this recipe a try ;)
