Provided by Maike

Categories     Baked Goods     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick butter (unsalted, room temperature)
½ cup sugar (granulated)
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup milk
1¼ cup flour (all purpose)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 package instant pudding mix
1 ½ cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup sugar
½ cup water (divided)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 cups strawberries (sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Grease the bottom of an 11" tart pan and lightly sprinkle with some flour. Be sure not to grease the sides of the tart pan as this will interfere with the batter rising.
  • Use a large mixing bowl and a hand mixer and beat the softened butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt together on high speed until smooth. About 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce the speed to low and add in one egg at a time. Allow each egg to fully incorporate into the batter before adding the next egg.
  • Slowly add the milk into the batter. Beat on low until the milk is well combined.
  • Add the flour and baking powder to the batter and continue to beat on low speed. Use a spatula to scrape the sides. Beat until the dry ingredients are well combined.
  • Pour batter into the tart pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer onto a cooling rack. Remove from the tart pan and allow it to cool completely.
  • Use a medium mixing bowl and combine instant pudding with heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer and whisk until the mixture is creamy. Set aside.
  • Use a small bowl and whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water until there are no lumps. Set aside.
  • Use a small saucepan and bring a ¼ cup of water and ½ cup of sugar to a boil. Once the water has reached a boil, reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the liquid cornstarch into the boiling sugar water.
  • Whisk continuously for about 3-5 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once the cake has fully cooled. Spread the pudding cream mixture with a spatula or cake spreader evenly across the cake.
  • Top the filling with sliced strawberries. Use a pastry brush to glaze the strawberries. Allow to harden for 30 minutes.

FRESH STRAWBERRY TART



Fresh Strawberry Tart image

This free-form strawberry tart in a buttercrust pastry is thickly glazed and beautiful. You can use a tart pan, but going free-form is kind of fun. Be sure to use perfectly ripe, sweet strawberries.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Tarts     Fruit Tart Recipes

Time 2h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) ball sweet pastry dough
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons creme fraiche
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 large egg yolk
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 pound fresh ripe strawberries, hulled, halved
¼ cup apricot jam
2 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place pastry dough on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out dough to a round disk about 1/8-inch thick and 12 inches in diameter. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush outside 2 inches around the edges of circle lightly with water. Tightly curl up a bit of the edge of the dough to give it a rounder shape with a slightly thickened edge. If some edges are thicker than others, pinch off excess and add to thinner edges forming a circle with even edges. Roll each edge again just once to make the edges thick enough to crimp. Crimp crust with your floured fingers.
  • Use a fork to "dock" the bottom surface, covering it with tiny holes to prevent the dough from bubbling up as it bakes.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool about 10 minutes. Do not turn off the oven.
  • Place cream cheese, creme fraiche, egg yolk, sugar, salt, vanilla, and lemon zest in mixing bowl. Mix together thoroughly. Carefully pour a thin layer of mixture evenly into pastry shell (you may not need all the cheese mixture).
  • Transfer filled tart to oven. Bake until cheese layer is set and crust is browned, about 20 minutes. Let tart cool completely to room temperature before adding berries.
  • Arrange berries cut side down, pointy end out starting with the larger berries around the edges. You can lean strawberries up a bit as your work your way toward the center. Cut some berry halves in half again to fit into any gaps on the cheese layer.
  • Place apricot jam and 2 teaspoons water in saucepan. Heat over low heat until thin enough to brush. Let cool slightly before brushing generously over all berries and crust. Transfer tart to serving plate.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, sweet strawberries. This will ensure that your torte has the best flavor. Look for berries that are deep red and have no blemishes.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold before you start. This will help the torte set properly. If your ingredients are warm, the butter will melt and the torte will be too soft.
  • Work quickly when you are assembling the torte. The strawberries will start to release their juices if they sit for too long, which will make the torte soggy.
  • Chill the torte for at least 3 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the torte to set properly.
  • Serve the torte with fresh whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious finishing touch.

Conclusion:

This fresh strawberry torte is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for any occasion, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. The combination of sweet strawberries, creamy filling, and flaky crust is simply irresistible. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this fresh strawberry torte a try. You won't be disappointed.
