Instructions

Bake the crust

  • Preheat oven to 350℉
  • Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt

  • Press mixture into.a tart pan and smooth
  • Poke with a fork around bottom
  • Bake until golden brown ~35-30 minutes
  • Allow crust to cool completely

Filling

  • Use hand mixer and beat heavy cream in mixing bowl until it stiffens (8-10 minutes)
  • In another mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese & sugar until well blended
  • Add in lemon juice, zest, and vanilla, and beat until well combined
  • Fold in whipped cream from other bowl
  • Spread into cooled crust and smooth over

Topping

  • Cut up the fruit of your choice and arrange on top of the tart
    Note: I pressed the fruit in paper towels to remove excess moisture so it doesn't make the top 'gooey'
  • Chill for at least an hour so it all firms up
