Mascarpone, will you marry me?

Or just come live with me every day? I promise to treat you right. Alright, alright. Really, this tart is very simple. Delightfully sweet and spicy gingersnap crust. Luscious, rich cream cheese and mascarpone filling. Perfectly ripe nectarines sliced thinly and layered on top. Perfect and refreshing for a warm summer day.

The only complaint came from my husband who thinks nectarines look too much like peaches and the tart made him long for a peach and mascarpone tart. Which would also have been delightful. This beautiful 11" tart is even better the second day. You know, if there's anything left.
