Strawberries and blueberries come together with a cookie tart to form the perfect Fourth of July dessert! This totally works for other holidays as well, so there’s no excuse NOT to make it!
In a stand mixer, combine the butter and sugar and mix until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure everything is combined evenly.
8 tbsp (1 stick) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar
Add the vanilla extract and egg. Mix until incorporated.
1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 large egg
Add the salt, baking soda, and flour and mix until just combined.
½ tsp kosher salt, ½ tsp baking soda, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
Press into an 8×11 tart pan or 9×9 baking pan. Bake until the edges are set and the center has puffed and fallen, 20-25 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool. The crust can be made a day in advance or up to one week ahead and frozen.
