  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into cubes and chilled)

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into 4 pieces and chilled)
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 10 ounces (2 cups) blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust by mixing flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut in chilled butter until crumbly. Stir in egg yolk, heavy cream, and vanilla until combined. Press into a tart pan and chill for 30 minutes.
