Print Recipe

A luxurious no-bake tart featuring a creamy cheese filling and a crunchy biscuit base, brightened with fresh lemons.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 g biscuits type petits-beurre or spéculoos
  • 100 g melted butter
  • 400 g cream cheese
  • 300 ml cold heavy cream
  • 120 g icing sugar
  • Juice and zest of 2 untreated lemons
  • 2 sheets of gelatin (or 1 packet of agar-agar)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Whipped cream for decoration
  • Lemon slices for decoration

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients by gathering them together and lining a removable-bottom tart tin with parchment paper.
  2. Make the biscuit crust by crushing the biscuits into fine crumbs and mixing in melted butter.
  3. Press the mixture into the tart tin and spread it evenly across the bottom and sides.
  4. Let it set in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  5. Blend the cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth, then add icing sugar, lemon juice, and zest, whisking until combined.
  6. Whip the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form, then fold it gently into the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Prepare the gelatin by hydrating it in cold water, then dissolving it in warm water, or follow agar-agar instructions.
  8. Combine the prepared gelatin into the filling mixture.
  9. Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  10. Chill the tart covered with plastic wrap for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  11. Serve by removing the tart from the tin, garnishing with whipped cream and fresh lemon slices.

Notes

This tart is best when allowed to chill overnight. Adjust sweetness if using limes instead of lemons.
