Italian tart recipes rely on a few *normal* key ingredients. Most are found in a traditional
grocery
store. Chances are many of the ingredients are sitting in your pantry right now!Italian tart generally use at least ONE of these: Tart Recipes
Chocolate Tart RecipeChocolate Amaretto Pudding Recipe Plum Tart Lemon Tart Recipe Pear Tart Recipe Strawberry Mousse Recipe Tart Pans What works best for making tarts! How To Make Rice Pudding What kind of pans are needed?The recipes I have any of these tart pans will work. They are all pretty interchangeable. It just depends on who you are serving and what type presentation you want to make. What kind of crust is used for Italian tarts?Usually the crusts have almond flour or ground almonds. However, if you
are strapped, or just not wanting to deal with making a crust. You can use any frozen or
store bought crust. But, to have
that unique Italian flavor some sort of almond crust is called for in the recipes.

Ok, not MASSIVE amounts. But I do have to finish off the evening meal with a
little sweet something. When I was a kid my health conscience mother would ration my Halloween candy. Her mantra was, "white sugar will kill you". But my Italian grandma always told me, "Everybody needs a little bit of sugar." :-) So, to get my October Halloween sugar fix I will make the traditional Italian cookie recipe, Venetian Bones of the Dead. Italians make these for the Day of the Dead on November 2nd. So - hey, our holiday in America - Halloween is the closest. So - while the neighborhood is slamming down a bunch of gross mass produced candy on October 31st, I'll have a real goodie. Oh yeah, I'll have to post it too! (Eventually!) You know how it is. Work. Kids. Clean. Cook. I'll see if Bones Of The Dead is in my grandma's first recipe file she started when she married in 1932. Most of the recipes on my site came from her influence. If they aren't in her file - then I got them from her friends. And the remainder I experimented with adapting her style. I hope she looks down and smiles this Halloween. Lisa
