Remember these shortbread bar things? They were gluten and dairy free and kind of crumbly but delicious? This is it’s Valentines sister treat - richer and dressed up in a tart pan. This can be made gluten free with a GF shortbread cookie, likely found at a health food store.

If you do not have a tart pan, no problem! Use a parchment sling going up over the sides of an 8” square baking dish!

The recipe below is with a few teensy changes from Smitten Kitchen. I took my crust too far because I like a toasted flavor and it was too crunchy. Go for tender but holding together, not toasted.
