Almond-Plum Tart

From Food & Wine

Pastry chef Mitchelle Dy sautes plums in Chambord, a black raspberry liqueur, to give the succulent fruit even more sweetness and a slightly boozy edge. She then lays the plums in a puff pastry crust filled with ground almonds. The tart is gorgeous, but -- because Dy prepares the almonds in a food processor and uses store-bought puff pastry -- it's simple to make.
