- 1 1/2 cups

- 6 Tbsp.
cold unsalted butter
- 3
large eggs
- 1/2 cup
heavy cream
- 3 Tbsp.
heavy cream
- 8 oz.
goat cheese
- 2 Tbsp.
chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp.

Directions
- Step 1In a large bowl, sift flour, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Mix in 1 egg and 3 tablespoons heavy cream. (If too dry, add more cream.) Shape dough into a disk, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until chilled, 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Step 2Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, mix together cheese, remaining eggs and heavy cream, parsley, and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 3On a floured surface, roll out dough. Fit into an 11 1/2- by 8-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, rolling pin over top to cut off excess dough. Pour filling into crust. Bake until golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool, about 15 minutes, before removing tart from pan.
