Dazzle her this Mother’s Day with a show-stopping dessert that’s simple as pie!

It’s Mothers Day. You need a dessert. Sometimes a helpful shortcut will give you the little push you need to get the job done right. In this simple but stunning Strawberry-Lime Rhubarb Tart, save some time and effort by using store-bought pastry dough. Trust me, no one will notice, the amazing flavour of the fruit filling and whipped cream is really the star of the show.

Strawberry Rhubarb Tart_4 Around here, local rhubarb is in season from April until September and can be harvested 3-4 times during that time. I like to freeze fresh rhubarb pre-washed and cut into 1″ cubes, so for me it’s easy to just pull some out to thaw anytime I feel like a pie. Don’t let that stop you though, this tart would be great with any fresh fruit – raspberries, cherries or blueberries.

Strawberry Rhubarb Tart_3 Strawberry Rhubarb Tart_5 If whipped cream is all you have on hand, that would be a perfect finish to these tarts. However, if you want to take it up a notch this Mascarpone Whipped Cream with fresh lime zest is an amazing compliment to the fruit filling. Enjoy!

Author: Lori
Ingredients
  • 1 - homemade or store bought pastry crust dough
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup flour
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • ⅛ tsp ground cardamom
  • zest if one lime
  • 3 cups fresh fruit (1-/12 cup sliced strawberries + 1-1/2 cup rhubarb, chopped into 1" pieces)
Instructions
To make filling:
  1. In a medium saucepan, toss all ingredients and stir to coat fruit. Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently, until sugar is dissolved and the fruit starts to soften. Set aside.
To make tarts:
  1. Grease 4-3" tart tins with butter. Roll out pastry dough and with a 4" round, cut out 4 circles. Press dough circles into each tart tin.
  2. Divide the fruit mixture between the 4 tart tins - do not over-fill. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 400ºF for until fruit is bubbling and pastry is golden, about 13-18 minutes. Let cool completely, then remove from tart tins. Serve topped with Mascarpone Whipped Cream and more lime zest.
Mascarpone Whipped Cream: In a small bowl mix 1 cup whipping cream, ⅓ cup Mascarpone cheese, ¼ cup confectioner's sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cornstarch. Whip on high until stiff peaks form.
