Today was the potluck for EAD 875! Lovely way to end the semester! I decided to make a Fruit Tart. Originally, I was going to make a Tiramisu Bowl, but Dani was making her famous Toffee Chocolate Trifle.
I made the crust out of Nila wafers (50 crushed) and almonds (1/2 cup crushed)...mixed with melted butter. Had to press it down into my glass pie pan thing.)
Next, I had to make the filling. One cup of cold milk (whole), with Vanilla Pudding mix, and a cup of Cool Whip. :) Then I poured it in.
)
Finally, I left it sit in the refrigerator for about 3 hours....after....I cut/washed some fruit and placed it on top. I used strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, kiwi, and raspberries.
)
Took it to the potluck and people loved it. :) (At least I hope they were not lying to me....)
Personally, it was delicious! For next time--- I need to crush the nila wafers and almonds more...to little pieces. There were a couple of chunky almonds left. It was hard to cut out the crust without losing some...So I think I might also try some graham crackers to crush and mix it in.
Hope you enjoy!
