This week, the Tuesdays with Dorie recipe from Baking Chez Moi is one I really wanted to love but I had a few issues with it (I think). I mean, what’s not to love – Dorie’s sweet tart dough, cookie crumbs and slow cooked plums – sounds amazing doesn’t it? And it did TASTE amazing […]

Tuesdays with Dorie (Baking Chez Moi): (kinda sorta) Philadelphia Blueberry Corn Tart
