Here’s an easy recipe for a blackberry tart with a walnut crust and a cream cheese and Greek yogurt filling. The walnut crust is easily made by just pressing the dough into the tart pan and then pre-baking it. The filling is lightly sweetened and has lots of vanilla flavor. I added Greek yogurt for creaminess and to be more healthy. I simply topped it with freshly washed blackberries. I also submitted this recipe into the Publix berry recipe contest. This is the first recipe contest I have ever entered. It is regional only, only open to residents in the southeast, in states where there are Publix grocery stores. I created the recipe before I knew about the contest, and happened to see a link to the contest and the grand prize, a year’s worth of free groceries! I couldn’t pass up the slight chance I might win.
