This Cheesecake Tart is a perfect balance of creamy cheesecake filling in a buttery, crispy tart shell. It’s a simple yet elegant dessert that’s easy to make and even easier to devour!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • Fresh fruit for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a tart pan to form the crust.
  3. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and continue to mix until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.
  6. Stir in the lemon juice for added tanginess and mix until fully incorporated.
  7. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Refrigerate the tart for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the filling to set.
  9. Before serving, top with fresh fruit such as berries, kiwi, or citrus slices if desired.
  10. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can make the tart crust ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to fill it with the cheesecake mixture.
  • If you prefer a sweeter crust, you can add more sugar to the graham cracker mixture.
  • This cheesecake tart pairs wonderfully with a variety of fruit toppings, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.
