  1-Begin by making the crust: In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in the egg yolk, then add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough starts to come together.

• 2-Press the dough into a tart pan with a removable bottom, prick with a fork, and chill for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

• 3-Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove weights and bake for another 10 minutes or until golden. Let cool completely.

• 4-For the filling, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, whisk mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream.

• 5-Spread the filling evenly over the cooled crust.

• 6-Arrange the fresh fruit on top of the filling in a decorative pattern. For a shiny finish, warm apricot jam and brush over the fruit.

• 7-Chill the tart for at least 1 hour before serving.
