Bake on a lower oven rack until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 24-26 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack; cool completely., For topping, beat cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, mix lemon curd, sugar, vanilla and 1 tablespoon whipped cream; fold in remaining whipped cream. Spoon over filling. If desired, top with fresh berries. Refrigerate until serving.

BLACKBERRY TART RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit.
• Prebake the 9 inch or 9.5 inch tart crust at 400 Fahrenheit for 20 or 30 minutes according to my super detailed tutorial how to make tart crust shell from scratch. Let the tart shell cool slightly.
• In a bowl, toss 4 cups of blackberries, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Combine thoroughly.
• Spoon this mixture into the cooled tart shell. Top with the remaining 1 cup of blackberries. Sprinkle 1 or 2 tablespoons white sugar over the berries, and then sprinkle thinly chopped cold butter on top, too.
• Place the tart on a rimmed baking sheet (to catch any juices) and bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 F until filling starts to bubble. If crust starts to brown too much, place a piece of aluminum foil over the tart.
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream!

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place tart shells on a baking sheet.
• Mash blackberries and lemon zest together lightly in a small bowl. Divide blackberry mixture evenly into the bottom of tart shells.

• Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbly and shells are golden, 22 to 27 minutes.

BERRY TARTLETS

Steps:

• Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 piece to 1/8 inch thick. (Keep remaining dough refrigerated.) Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 8 rounds. Gently press into eight 2 1/2-inch round tart pans. Trim dough flush with top edge of pans. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line tart shells with parchment, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges are golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove parchment and weights; continue baking until surfaces are golden, about 10 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Repeat process with remaining dough.
• Remove tart shells from pans; spoon 2 teaspoons pastry cream into each. Top with berries. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Top with berry leaves, if desired.

BLACKBERRY TARTLETS

Steps:

• Roll the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface; fit into 8 fluted tartlet pans (3 1/2 inches in diameter, 1 1/2 inches deep). Chill at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line the tart shells with a second pan or parchment paper and dry beans. Place in the oven; bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the top pans or parchment lining; return to the oven if the bottoms of the shells are not fully browned. Set on a cooling rack until fully cool.
• Fill a bowl with ice and water; set aside. Place the berries, 2 tablespoons sugar, and the lemon zest in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the berries let off juices, the sugar dissolves, and the mixture begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and set the pan in the ice-water bath to cool.
• Chill a bowl and large whisk. Place the cream and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in the bowl; whip until soft peaks form. Fold 1/2 cup berry mixture into the whipped cream. Fill the tartlet shells with the mixture; top with the remaining berries and garnish with fresh pansies.

BLACKBERRY PUFF PASTRY TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
• Mix the cream cheese, sugar, and cinnamon together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Set aside.
• Place the puff pastry shells on the prepared cookies sheet. Brush each shell with milk and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
• Bake in preheated oven until shells expand and turn golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Watch closely to make sure shells bake thoroughly, but do not overbake. Remove shells from oven, and use a fork to remove the cap from each shell. Set the caps aside.
• Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into each shell. Top with 6 to 8 blackberries. Place a puff pastry cap on top of each shell over the berries.
• Return filled pastry shells to oven, and bake until pastry tops are golden brown and the filling is warm, about 5 minutes more.
