Description
This No-Bake Strawberry Tart is a delightful and easy-to-make dessert, perfect for warm weather. It features a simple crust and a creamy filling topped with fresh strawberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- For the Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Topping:
- 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- Strawberry jam or glaze (optional)
Instructions
- Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in the sweetened condensed milk until well combined. Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Assemble the Tart: Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the filling.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set.
- Serve: Before serving, brush the strawberries with a thin layer of strawberry jam or glaze for added shine, if desired. Remove the tart from the pan and slice to serve.
Notes
- For a richer crust, use digestive biscuits instead of graham crackers.
- You can substitute other berries for the strawberries, such as raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries.
- To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, brush it with melted chocolate before adding the filling.
- Store leftover tart in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
