From princessthunder 14 years agoIngredients
- 1 1/2 C all-purpose flour shopping list
- 1/4 tsp. salt shopping list
- 1/3 C. plus 3 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, divided shopping list
- 10 tbsp. unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces shopping list
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract shopping list
- 3 tbsp. ice water shopping list
- 6 oz. cream cheese, softened shopping list
- 1/2 C. sour cream shopping list
- 1 1/2 pounds strawberries, halved, or your choice of fresh fruit in season shopping list
How to make it
- 1. To make crust: combine flour, salt and 1/3 cup sugar in a food processor. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Alternate vanilla and ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing until moist.
- 2. Gather dough into ball and flatten. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm enough to roll - about 1 hour.
- 3. Preheat oven to 375 degree Fahrenheit. On a floured surface or parchment paper use a rolling pin to roll the dough until it is 12-inch round. Using an 11-inch dinner plate as guide, cut 11-inch round from dough with sharp knife. Discard trimmings.
- 4. Transfer dough to large cookie sheet. Create fluted edge in dough by pinching edges of dough at regular intervals. Lift each pinched section with one fingertip to create a decorative edge. Refrigerate on cookie sheet about 10 minutes to firm dough slightly.
- 5. Bake dough 20 to 25 minutes or until golden. Cool crust completely on cookie sheet.
- 6. To make cream cheese filling: in a bowl mix cream cheese, sour cream, 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar until well blended. Spread cream cheese mixture on crust inside of flutes.
- 7. To make topping: Layer berries, kiwi or other seasonal fruit on top of the cream cheese mixture. If the fruit you use is very tart, sprinkle with sugar or drizzle with a bit of honey.
