Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 0.5 cups powdered sugar Feel free to use a fine sugar alternative.
  • 1 pinch salt Adjust according to taste.
  • 0.5 cups cold butter Unsalted butter works beautifully.
  • 2 large egg yolks Whole eggs can be used, but yolks decrease shrinkage.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Can be omitted for simpler flavor.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until resembling coarse crumbs. Stir in egg yolks and vanilla extract. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick and fit it into a tart pan. Prick the base with a fork, line with foil, fill with pie weights. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and weights, bake for another 10 minutes until golden brown.
  3. In a saucepan, combine blueberries and heavy cream. Simmer gently for about 5 minutes until blueberries burst. Blend until smooth. Stir in white chocolate chips until melted and creamy.
  4. Pour the blueberry ganache into the cooled tart shell and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight if possible, to set.
  5. Slice the tart and serve chilled. Optionally dust with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh blueberries.
