Reviews forRaspberry Pear Tart

"I made this tart for New Year's Eve and brought it to a party. Everyone absolutely loved it and they thought I bought it at a bakery. Absolutely delicious!!!!"
"THIS WAS SO GOOD! The only change I made was that I used pecans instead of macadamia nuts. I let it cool completely and it came out of the tart pan with ease, served with vanilla ice cream! Don't be afraid when you are making the crust, it felt so dry, but as soon as I dumped in the tart pan to press in, it worked perfectly!"
"Delicious! I will certainly make it again, but I will reduce the temperature to 375 degrees as the crust was slightly burned. I will substitute almonds for the macadamia nuts and I will reduce the amount of topping -- 1/3 cup flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar and 2 1/2 Tbsp butter."
"Outstanding! I did not have a tart pan, made in a pie pan, it was still loved by the whole family :)"
"I did not have the pan suggested, so I made it in a 9 X 13 pan. It worked great. Next time I will increase the pears to 5 or 6 to give it a little more pear flavor."
"This was a great tart - the macadamia's add a little crunch and the pear-raspberry filling has a great spice flavor"
"YUM! I have already made this tart twice and am going to make it again soon! The only change I made was to add less raspberries so the pear flavor comes through a little more. Very delicious!"
