Happy Mother's Day!

This was my Mother's Day dessert this year. I made pate brisee in a lovely Matfer tart pan, but since I am not in my own kitchen, the crust shrank with out pie weights. Still buttery and crisp, but short on the sides. Still architecturally sound, I melted semi sweet chocolate to line the inside of the shell, and layered that with vanilla pastry creme, and piled up the red-ripe juicy berries.

It was a first Mother's Day for my daughter and my first as a grandmama...though i am called Jujy, just like my baking, JujyCakes.
