Irresistible cream cheese tart!! I always love these blueberry cheese tart as they are indeed a tantalizing treat, be it match with a cup of fine tea or coffee. It never fails its combination taste. Been trying a few recipes but this one is extremely simple as well as delicious. Also, I've tried 2 different molds to come out different shapes as well.

Pastry:
3/4 cup Butter
1/2 cup Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla
2 Tbsp lightly beaten whole Egg
1 1/2 cup Flour
1. Beat butter and sugar until well combined. Add in egg, vanilla and salt
2. Add in flour and mix well till soft dough is formed.
3. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4. Press into tart mold. Prick some holes into the pastry.
5. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown in 350F preheated oven.
6. Set Aside.
Filling:
250 g Cream Cheese
1/3 cup Sugar
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp lightly beaten whole egg
Extra: Blueberries jam
1. Mix the filling with the above ingredients.
2. Pour a tablespoonful into the prepared tart shells.
3. Scoop a little bit of blueberries jam filling in the middle.
4. Make any shape pattern on top of the filling.
Bake for another 10-12 minutes
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteAnn: Thanks too. Think will bake a lot of tart this month!
I agree with Ann, I like the swirls a lot. It's like latte art but for tarts instead!
