GERMAN TART CRUST RECIPE
I make no personal claim to this. I found it on a German recipe site. You will need a pan that makes the raised edge, I think they call them a flan pan. Amazon.com for about $11, postage paid, or thereabouts. I have mopdified it slightly and added a couple topping variations of my own. Also if you are in a hurry a nice thick canned pizza crust works well.,

- Grease, or spray, your baking pan, sprinkle with bread crumbs, fill in teh dough and flatten.
- Bake in preheated oven, 350 degrees, 13-15 minutes, until golden. Let cool on a wire rack.
- From here on there are variations. For the vanilla sugar, mix vanilla, the real stuff, 1 tsp to 2 cups sugar and let dry completely. It will keep about about a year in a closed ocntainer,
- Wash/cap/hull strawsberries and arrange over cooled cake. See glazes below.
- 3 tbsp strawberry jam, heated, use a pastrry brush to spread over the berries. Cook a firm vanilla pudding, spread it on the cake, then top with the berries. MY ADDITIONs: 1 cup water, 1 package sugar free strawbrerry jello, 2 tbsp cornstarch. cook until it thickens. Let cool to finger touch then spread evenly over the berries. Make a mixture of cream cheese& milk, just enough so it is easily spreadable spread on cake then add the berries.
