Walnut Toffee Tart

There's no sweeter way to enjoy the flavor of walnuts than this scrumptious tart.—Patricia Green, Yuba City, California

8-10 ServingsPrep: 30 min. Bake: 20 min.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup cold butter
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
1/4 cup cold milk
FILLING:
1-1/2 cups sugar
1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts

Directions

In a bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg yolks and milk; stir into flour
mixture until blended. With lightly floured hands, press dough onto
the bottom and 1 in. up the sides of a 12-in. tart pan with
removable bottom. Line unpricked shell with a double thickness of
heavy-duty foil. Place pan on a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until edges are lightly
browned.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine the sugar, cream, cinnamon and
salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove
from the heat; stir in walnuts. Remove foil from pastry shell; pour
filling into pastry. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
