I made a blackberry tart w/ my girlfriend. We've never really baked before

Wow, you two did a fantastic job!! You should be very proud because this looks FANTASTIC.

Thank you so much! I don’t know if it’s exactly perfect yet, but I’m super happy with our first try. I won’t be totally satisfied until I can emulate the tarts that I’ve had in Europe, haha.

It’s good to have goals.

Yum! Was it Claire Saffitz’s recipe?

We picked up a baking book recently; when I get back home, I’ll let you know who the author was.

You were right on the money with that! Got it out of her book, Dessert Person.

It’s a great book. Try the sour cream and chive rolls.

Wow! Looks so good! What recipe did you use?

This is the blackberry caramel tart recipe from Claire Saffitz’s cookbook Dessert Person. I highly recommend purchasing it; she has many wonderful recipes! If you like carrot cake, her recipe for it is life-changing.

This is a perfect looking pie.

Beautiful! I love the simplicity! Minimalism is always more difficult and more rewarding, in my opinion.

Well done, you guys! It looks yummy :heart:

Yummy!

If I had some blackberries, I’d be attempting this right now. Maybe I should make one with a different fruit. Yours looks perfect!

We talked about doing a mix of blackberries and raspberries, but forgot to get anything besides the blackberries, lol. We’ll just have to try next time.

Terrific, yum! Put some whipped cream or ice cream on there! Woohoo!

I really wanted to add whipped cream but we didn’t have any on hand, and we didn’t have time to make it ourselves. No worries; it was fantastic on its own.

Bro, I’m not even a big cooked fruit person, but this looks delightful as heck!

Yum!!! Nice job!
