Torta della Nonna

New Year, New dessert obsession... 

There is the old favourite banana bread, the comforting corn muffins, the foolproof chocolate chip cookies, and then there is this tart. Or cake. Or cheesecake. Or whatever. It's heavenly. 

Every now and then we try a new decadent, different dessert, and this is without doubt one of my new favourites. (Of course, trust Tim from Lottie and Doof to find and post the loveliest, most unique recipe.) The crust and biscuit topping are delicious enough to just make a batch of them to eat alone, which I'm highly tempted to do. The tart itself is light but rich, creamy but textured, enough to satisfy you but so good that you crave more anyway. 
And of course, it's beautifully photogenic. 

Do not wait for New Year's Eve again – get your favourite people round (people with whom you don't mind sharing, because your instinct will tell you to hog this), get into the kitchen, and make this as soon as possible.
