Blackberry Custard Torte Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1-1/2 hours + cooling

Yield: 12-14 Servings

15 90 105

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup cold butter
1 egg
FILLING:
3 egg yolks
2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries, drained, divided
Whipped cream

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar and baking powder; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in egg until dough forms a ball. Press onto the bottom and 2 in. up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. springform pan.
For filling, beat the egg yolks, sour cream, sugar and vanilla in another small bowl just until combined. Sprinkle 2 cups blackberries over crust. Carefully pour sour cream mixture over berries. Place pan on a baking sheet.
Bake at 325° for 1-1/2 hours or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack (center will fall).
Remove sides of pan. Top with whipped cream and remaining blackberries. Refrigerate any leftovers. Yield: 12-14 servings.

Editor's Note: Even a tight-fitting springform pan may leak. To prevent drips, place the pan on a shallow baking pan in the oven.

I took this to work today and one of the lawyers asked for the recipe. I said, "for your wife?" He said, no, he was going to make it. Shame on me for making the assumption men don't bake. All my coworkers love it.
