"- This tart is best served warm and on the day it was baked. Although the flavor was lovely the day after, the texture had definitely declined. - I used a 13.8 x 4.3 x 1.1 inches rectangular tart pan with removable bottom. This recipe will also accommodate an 8 inch round tart pan. - If you do not have brandy or cognac, simply omit it, the tart will still be delicious. - This is amazing served alone, but is delish with a scoop of ice cream and a little drizzle of caramel sauce...."
