Berry Tart - Celebrating Sweets

Berry Tart - Celebrating Sweets

This easy and impressive Berry Tart is sure to be a crowd pleaser. A soft sugar cookie crust is topped with whipped cream frosting and finished with a pile of fresh berries.

All my favorite things rolled into one beautiful and delicious dessert! A soft sugar cookie crust is topped whipped cream frosting and piled high with lots of fresh berries. I took inspiration from my mini fruit tarts and created this big beautiful Berry Tart that is perfect for highlighting summer’s bounty!

Summer is one of my favorite seasons to make desserts because I love baking with berries. If you’re berry-obsessed (like me!) you can also try some of my other berry recipes: Berry Trifle, Strawberry Crisp, Blueberry Scones, Berry Crumb Bars.

What makes this recipe work

There are three components that work together to make this tart delicious:

  • Sugar Cookie Crust: This easy homemade sugar cookie dough gets pressed into a tart pan and baked. This crust bakes up soft and moist, making it the perfect base of the tart.

  • Whipped Cream Frosting: I took my all-time favorite frosting (from my Strawberry Shortcake Cake) and I used it as the topping for this tart. It is smooth, creamy, and perfectly sweet.

  • Berries: Use your favorite combination of fresh berries and pile them high on this tart. The pop of color and fresh flavor complement the crust and filling beautifully.

Serving and storage

Serving: This tart is best served the day that it is made. Plan ahead to allow plenty of time for the cookie crust to cool before topping it. Once assembled, you can serve it right away, but I recommend popping it in the refrigerator for about two hours so the filling can firm up.

Storage: This tart should be stored in the refrigerator, but it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Note: the berries will start releasing some juices after the first day.
