Terrible tart

This Easter tart is not worth the trouble.
I won't even give you the crust recipe. The filling in the little bowl is 3 egg yolks, beaten with a fork, 3/4 C. heavy cream, & 3 T. sugar.
Pour the filling into the shell.


I should have quit, but instead I plugged the holes of the leaky crust with almond paste & made the filling again. It leaked too, but less. I threw in some sliced strawberries, eased the pan onto a foil-covered cookie sheet, & baked it about 30 min. at 375°. Scraped the leaks, now looking like sweet scrambled eggs, off the foil, & threw them on top of the tart. Hid it all under a mountain of powdered sugar. Tasted good, but I've got to work on that crust.
