This tart came out perfect and looked pretty much just like the photo shown on the recipe! I used the cherry syrup leftover from a jar of Italian cherries I used for the tart and made a cherry meringue (I loved the addition but my boyfriend liked the tart by itself.) I do recommend chilling the dough only 5 mins if it isn't warm in your kitchen as my dough was brittle when rolling. I let it warm up and it was fine! A+ delicious tart recipe.
