Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 356F (180C).
  2. Combine the pastry ingredients, and spread the mass on the bottom and the sides of a 35*12cm (13.80*4.72 inch) tart dish.
  3. Bake for about 20 minutes.
  4. The base will “swell” a little, so remove it from the oven, press the base against the mold with the back of a spoon, and put it back in the oven for 5 minutes.
  5. Take it out of the oven, and let it cool.
  6. Meanwhile, whip the cream, powdered sugar (or other sweetener) and mascarpone cheese until thick and fluffy.
  7. Spoon the mascarpone cream over the base, and garnish with berries before serving.
