Raspberry Blueberry Star Tart

Ingredients

  • 2 (19 ounce) packages refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 1 (14 ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice or 1/3 cup lime juice
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 2 cups raspberries or 2 cups strawberries, halved
  • coarse sugar (plain or colored) (optional)

Method

  1. About four hours before you plan to serve, heat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9" or 11" round tart pan thoroughly.
  2. Take one package of the cookie dough. With floured or greased hands, press the dough evenly across the base and up the sides of the prepared pan.
  3. For the decorations, roll the second package of dough on a surface dusted with flour. Use a cutter to shape star cookies from the dough.
  4. Transfer the cut-out stars to a baking sheet that does not need greasing. If desired, scatter some coarse sugar over them.
  5. Bake the tart crust for 12-15 minutes and the star cookies for 3-4 minutes. Allow both to cool completely.
  6. Prepare the filling by mixing the condensed milk, sour cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Keep stirring for 3 minutes until the mixture thickens noticeably.
  7. Cover the filling and place it in the refrigerator to chill for up to four hours.
  8. To assemble, carefully detach and lift away the outer ring of the tart pan, leaving the crust on the metal base. The baked star cookies can be used to edge the tart if the sides are uneven.
  9. Evenly spread the chilled filling over the cooled crust. Arrange the blueberries and raspberries on top, then finish by adding the star cookies.
