Instructions

Step 1

Prepare Dough

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
Add the butter and mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.

Wrap the dough in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Prepare Filling

Beat the cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and continue beating.
Mix in the lemon juice and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Assemble and Bake

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
Roll out the dough and fit it into a tart pan.
Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden.

Servings

When it comes to serving this Dreamy Cream Cheese Tart, the possibilities are endless! Here are some exciting ideas to make every bite unforgettable:

  • Top with Fresh Berries 🍓
    A handful of fresh strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries adds a burst of color and a fresh, juicy contrast to the creamy filling.
  • Drizzle with Honey 🍯
    A light drizzle of honey can enhance the flavor and add a sweet, golden finish that looks stunning and tastes even better.
  • Add a Dollop of Whipped Cream 🎂
    For an extra touch of decadence, serve each slice with a generous dollop of homemade whipped cream. It's the perfect finishing touch!
  • Sprinkle with Nuts 🌰
    Crushed nuts like almonds, pecans, or walnuts can add a crunchy texture and a rich, nutty flavor to your tart.

Don't forget to pair it with your favorite beverage. A cup of tea, coffee, or even a glass of dessert wine can elevate your dessert experience to new heights! 🥂

Variations

Gluten-Free Variation: 🌾

Simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure the blend contains xanthan gum or add a teaspoon yourself to ensure the dough holds together.

Vegan Variation: 🌱

Replace the butter with a vegan butter substitute and use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water) instead of a regular egg. For the filling, use a vegan cream cheese and ensure that your confectioners' sugar is also vegan-friendly.

These variations keep the flavor and texture you love while making the tart accessible to even more people. 🌟

Faq

  • Can I make the dough ahead of time?

    Yes, you can! The dough can be made and chilled up to 2 days in advance. Just make sure it's wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.

  • How do I prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin?

    Lightly flour the rolling pin and your work surface. You can also roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper for an easier, non-stick option.

  • Can I double the recipe?

    Absolutely! Just make sure you have a large enough mixing bowl to accommodate the increased quantities. You may also need to adjust the baking time slightly, so keep an eye on the tart as it bakes.

  • Why is my filling lumpy?

    Lumpy filling usually means the cream cheese wasn't softened enough before beating. Make sure it's at room temperature for the smoothest results.

  • How do I get a perfectly golden crust?

    Make sure your oven is preheated properly and avoid opening the door too often while baking. If necessary, you can cover the edges with foil halfway through to prevent over-browning.

  • Can I freeze the tart?

    You can freeze this tart after it's fully baked. Wrap it well in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
