| 1 | pint | Ripe blackberries, about 2 C |
| 1 | tablespoon | Lemon juice |

Directions
Roll the dough as directed for the desired tart size. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet and refrigerate while you prepare the berries.
In a medium bowl, place the blackberries and toss with the lemon juice and framboise if desired and all but 1 T of the sugar. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the 2½ tablespoons flour with the remaining sugar. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and sprinkle the flour-sugar mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a border uncovered as directed above. Arrange the fruit evenly over the flour-sugar mixture. Fold the rim of dough over the fruit, crimping the seams lightly with moistened fingers. Shave the butter on top of the berries.
Bake the tart in a preheated 400'F oven as directed above.
