CROSTATA DI NOCI E MIRTILLI ROSSI: CRANBERRY WALNUT TART



Crostata Di Noci E Mirtilli Rossi: Cranberry Walnut Tart image

This recipe comes from the 1998 Recipes of the Five Brothers: Volume I cookbook by Lipton. My mother made this once, and it was delicious. It is, however, very tart - so add more sugar to the cranberry filling if tart is not your thing. The recipe is for both the dough and the filling, and prep time includes 1 hour chill time.
