Cindy Mushet’s Italian Jam Shortbread Tart (Fregolotta)

‘Tis the season for holiday potlucks. If you’re already bored of your standby holiday dessert recipes, give this one a shot. It was super duper easy, it turns out really pretty with minimal attention to presentation, and isn’t overly sweet, which is a nice change of pace from that sugar high you’re gonna be riding all the way through to New Years. One little recipe note: The recipe says you should let this bake for 45-50 minutes, but mine only took about 35. Just keep an eye on it after the 30 minute mark. All the butter in that crust means it could go from barely blonde to overdone in a hurry.

I got the recipe from Food52. If you aren’t already following their tumblr, do it now. So many great recipes without a lot of fuss or specialty ingredients.
