Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Fresh cranberries and mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Make the Crust: In a bowl, combine flour, butter, powdered sugar, and salt. Mix until crumbly. Add egg yolk and mix until dough forms. Press into a tart pan and chill for 30 minutes.
2. Pre-bake the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes until golden. Let it cool completely.
3. Prepare the Cranberry Filling: In a saucepan, combine cranberries, granulated sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat until cranberries burst and mixture thickens (about 10 minutes). Cool slightly before pouring into the cooled crust.
4. Make the White Chocolate Ganache: In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream until just simmering. Pour over white chocolate chips in a bowl and let sit for a few minutes. Stir until smooth and combined. Add vanilla extract.
5. Assemble the Tart: Pour the white chocolate ganache over the cranberry filling, smoothing the top. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
6. Serve: Garnish with fresh cranberries and mint leaves if desired. Slice and serve chilled.
