Watch as Better Homes and Gardens shows you how to make this 4th of July dessert: a flag berry tart recipe! 4th of July desserts, like this tart recipe, show off your patriotic pride with ease through raspberries and blueberries. The perfect all-American center is colorful and sweet. Little will your guests know that simple dessert recipes like this one came together in the blink of an eye. Roll out the dough for the bottom of the tart so that it's a little bit larger than the sheet pan and freeze it for about 20 minutes. This way, when you go to bake this 4th of July food, the dough won't shrink. Use a fork to poke holes along the bottom of the dough-lined pan to keep the dough from rising and bubbling during the baking process. Toss fresh raspberries and blueberries with some sugar and ClearJel, which will act as a thickener for these 4th of July desserts. Arrange the raspberries along the bottom up to the top of the pastry, making sure to leave the upper left hand corner empty where the blueberries should go. In order to make the essential stars and stripes for this proud flag dessert, cut the pastry dough into long stripes and stars cutouts. You'll want to use a basting brush to egg wash both the stars and stripes to use as a bit of glue. The light-colored dough contrasts with the red and blue in this easy dessert. Sprinkle on white Swedish sugar to give the stars and stripes their recognizable bright white color, then begin applying them to the tart in their appropriate locations. Bake the 4th of July desserts for 45 minutes to an hour before delving into this proud United States emblem. Guests young and old will love feel like a true American digging into these fun dessert recipes!
