Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup whipping cream
1 lb white chocolate
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
2 cups raspberries
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

For Crust:.
Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC).
Cut the butter into 1-inch (2.5-cm) cubes.
Combine the flour and sugar in a large bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Combine egg yolks and lemon juice. Add to flour mixture and blend well.
Roll out or pat the pastry until 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Place in a 9-inch (23-cm) flan pan. Trim off excess and prick the pastry with a fork.
Bake blind for 15 minutes in the lower third of the oven. Remove the pie weights. Bake for a further 5 minutes to partially bake the crust. Or another 10 to 15 minutes to fully bake the crust.
For Filling:.
Bring cream to boil in large pot over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in white chocolate until melted and smooth.
Stir in mascarpone cheese until mixture is smooth and uniform.
Pack raspberries in a tight layer over base of tart shell. Pour over chocolate mixture covering berries evenly. Refrigerate for 3 hours. Shave dark chocolate over tart if desired.
