Raspberry Tart with Chocolate



My father-in-law would say the best raspberries are black raspberries. I would disagree and say the best raspberries are those growing wild in your backyard!  My wife has been nurturing a wild raspberry plant in our backyard and this year it paid off. The cornmeal crust is from Chez Panisse Fruit made by me but SHE picked the fruit and brought the tart together. She also made a pint of raspberry jam with fruit picked from this plant.

Ingredients: 1 precooked cornmeal tart crust - enough chocolate to line the bottom of the crust and about 100 freshly picked raspberries. Enjoy!

Holiday Lemon Squares (Lemon Love Notes)

 I remember these as a Christmas treat my grandmother would make, and every year when my wife asks what kind of cookies I want, I say Lemon Squares. She usually says... you're supposed to make those in February and they are called 'Lemon Love Notes'. Its a good thing I'm flexible and happy to eat them in February too. The recipe for these can be found in The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook by Deb Perelman . Her recipes are reliable and she takes better pictures. Check out her book for the details.
