Raspberry Coconut Cream Tart

Tuesday, April 26, 2011

This tart is so easy, all made from scratch or you can use all store-bought ingredients.

The tart requires a tart dough, vanilla filling, coconut, and a triple berry fruit combination.

Growing up dad love raspberry jam cupcakes with coconut on top this tart reminds me of all those flavors but elegantly better!

If you're looking for a great dessert for hosting your next dinner party, this one will come together quickly with my suggestions alone but if you do have the time, make one from scratch you won't be sorry.

Just scroll down to the printable recipe card for this easy delicious tart recipe.








Easy Steps

  1. Make a tart shell with homemade tart dough or store-bought pie crust
  2. After cooled, spread with a layer of raspberry pie filling or make our triple berry sauce homemade in the recipe card
  3. Top with coconut cream custard, whipped cream, and coconut




Toppings and Tips

  • Substitute a fruit pie filling for the fruit layer  peach pie filling, strawberry pie filling  or use diced fresh fruits IE mango, fresh diced pineapple go great as an alternative with coconut cream filling
  • Make sure the tart crust is completely cooled before building the tart
  • Use real whipped cream for your garnish and toasted coconutDrizzle the top with Chambord or Hot fudge for chocolate lovers
  • Toasted Coconut: spread coconut on a paper plate for microwave on high for 30 stir, repeat until coconut turns a light golden brown, use this as a garnish



Easy Recipe



There are two ways to make this whether you're a baker or not.


Mine is all homemade, but you can make this semi-homemade, you can still experience the great flavors.


Using a buttery homemade tart shell or a store-bought pie shell, boxed coconut pudding, and bottled berry, this pie can be recreated with little ease.


Of course, homemade is always better, but sometimes you can be in such a hurry, the alternative is also delicious.
