How I was able to fit this tart into this week's crazy end of the school year schedule is beyond me. But how could I not. It has everything I love in it: shortbread, smeared with lemon curd, topped with berries with a glaze of red currant jelly which I found surprisingly delicious.

The shortbread crust alone is out of this world. |
This tart was given a thumbs up by my son who will be graduating 8th grade tomorrow. My daughter who only had time to help roll out the dough, thought I did a fair job without her supervision. She is still in a bad mood because her softball play off game was cancelled again because of thunderstorms.

Lemon curd is one of my favorite topping but you could put any kind of spread that you like on it. |
Husband and nephew silently gobbled up their slice. I later caught my hubby snatching a second piece. The remainder of this tart was eaten for breakfast.

Delicious for tea time, dessert, or even breakfast. |
So can you go wrong with making this tart, it looks good and tastes even better. Make it!
