I hope you’re having a totally fabulous Tuesday morning. I’m excited to share one of my favorite “health-ish” autumn desserts with y’all today!
Do you have grape vines that grow in your backyard? Me either. However, one of my very nice friends does and they were so very kind to share with me. Any kind of grape can work with this recipe as long as it’s sweet in flavor and seedless.
Grape Mascarpone Rustic Tart is a beautiful and oh-so-simple fresh fruit tart!
