This torte is easy to make but looks like a showstopper! Its festive, colorful presentation

Ingredients:
For the Torte Base:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup sugar
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter (or plant-based butter), softened
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– Pinch of salt
For the Filling (choose one):
Dairy Option:
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/3 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Non-Dairy Option:
– 8 oz plant-based cream cheese (such as almond or oat milk-based)
– 1/3 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Topping:

– 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, halved
– 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
-1/2 cup fresh raspberries
– 1/2 cup fresh black raspberries
-1/2 cup fresh cherries – with stems or not.
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan or tart pan.
2. Make the Torte Base:
In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the
egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet until fully combined.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared pan — it will be a little thick, like a
soft cookie dough.
3. Bake the Base:
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until lightly golden and set. Cool completely before
adding the filling.
4. Prepare the Filling:
In a medium bowl, beat together your choice of cream cheese (dairy or non-
dairy), powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
5. Assemble the Torte:
Spread the filling evenly over the cooled crust. Arrange the strawberries,
blueberries, raspberries, black raspberries, and cherries on top in a beautiful
pattern.
6. Optional Finishing Touch:
Lightly dust with powdered sugar or brush the berries with a simple glaze (mix a
little fruit jam with water and lightly brush over the berries) for a glossy finish.
7. Chill:
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to set the filling.
For extra flavor, add a thin layer of fruit jam between the crust and the filling.
You can easily customize the berry mix based on your favorites.
