Walnut-Cranberry-Whiskey Tart image

The tanginess of the cranberries provides a nice contrast to the sweetness of this nut tart. Frozen cranberries can be used in place of the fresh cranberries. Do not thaw them; simply coarsely chop them and proceed with the recipe. Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare this tart in advance; cover it loosely and store it at room temperature for up to a day.

Yield 1 tart, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (15 ounce) package pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on package
3 eggs, slightly beaten
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup bourbon whiskey
1 1/2 cups walnuts, chopped
3/4 cup fresh cranberries, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450. Place pie crust in 10 inch tart pan with removable bottom or 9 inch pie pan as direct on package for one-crust filed pie. Trim edges; do not prick crust.
  • Bake at 450 for 5-7 minutes or just until crust begins to brown. Remove crust from oven. If crust puffs in center, flatten gently with back of wooden spoon. Reduce oven temperature to 350.
  • In large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, corn syrup and whiskey; beat until well blended. Stir in walnuts and cranberries. Pour into partially baked crust.
