I fell for the Bakewell tart, a British dessert, while stationed in Dubai with the Navy. Jam with almond filling is traditional, but red velvet makes this a holiday dazzler. -Crystal Schlueter, Northglenn, Colorado

The tart was a bit too complicated to make. I think I'll stick to simpler desserts in the future.

The tart was a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter to the shortcrust pastry.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.

I'm not a huge fan of raspberries, so I used strawberries instead. The tart was still delicious, but I think I would have preferred it with raspberries.

The shortcrust pastry was a bit tricky to work with, but the end result was worth it. The pastry was flaky and buttery.

I love that this recipe uses almond frangipane. It adds a lovely nutty flavor to the tart.

I used fresh raspberries for this tart and they were perfect. The tartness of the berries balanced out the sweetness of the frangipane and pastry.

I'm not usually a fan of Bakewell tarts, but this recipe changed my mind! The raspberry filling was tart and tangy, while the almond frangipane was rich and creamy.
