Now let’s talk about mascarpone. I think it’s pretty much the most underrated cheese ever. I mean you don’t grate it. And it doesn’t come in big block pieces. But when it comes to all-time creamiest, dreamiest, most meltiest cheeses? Yeah, mascarpone. I absolutely love throwing it into all sorts of sauces because it give a perfectly smooth texture to the sauce and doesn’t clump up at all as it melts. And it’s is fairly mild, lending itself well to many different flavor combinations as the mascarpone is able to easily elevate a dish to a richer level. Which is perfect not just for sauces, but for desserts!

Which brings me to todays recipe: these blueberry and peach tarts. I know, I know. “A dessert without chocolate?!” you say. I say: try this one tonight! It will change you “only-chocolate-dessert” lovers into lovers of all things creamy and tart and sweet all at the same time. And for these blueberry and peach tarts, I chose to pair the mascarpone with tangy Greek yogurt, fresh sweet honey, and just a small pinch of salt. I like to add just a hint of salt to my desserts because I feel that even that little bit of seasoning makes the rest of your flavors pop. Like blueberries! And peaches!

Oh, hello again! Lastly, don’t forget: you’ll need one of these super handy 10 1/4″ tart pans with removable bottom. What a crazy smart invention – I love my removable bottom tart pans!
Now I want to hear from you: what is your favorite non-chocolate dessert these days? I’m serious: share with me all your cookies, tarts, pies: all things outside the realm of chocolate are fair game!
