Sunshine Cream Cheese Tart

Plain cheesecake is delicious too, but this time I added a bright color and fresh fragrance to make something that would really brighten up the table.

This tart has a soft and moist texture. If you prefer a crispy tart crust, bake the crust 'blind' with weights for 29 minutes at 170°C, then add the filling and bake for another 20 minutes or so.
Butter the tart mold if needed, and adjust the temperature depending on your oven. For one 18 cm [7.1 in] diameter tart pan. Recipe by caramel-cookie

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring the cream cheese and egg for the filling to room temperature. Alternatively, microwave the cream cheese for about 40 seconds (at 500-600 W).

  2. 2

    Make the tart crust. Dice the butter into 1 cm pieces. Put the cake flour in a bowl, add the diced butter and cut it in using a pastry scraper or similar utensil until the mixture is crumbly.

  3. 3

    Make a well in the middle, add the granulated sugar, salt, egg yolk and milk, and mix it all together with a spatula (or your hands).

  4. 4

    Press flat together and wrap in plastic film. Rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 170°C.

  5. 5

    Make the filling. Peel the orange and take the segments out of the membrane. If the candied orange peel is in big pieces, chop it up finely.

  6. 6

    Mix the cream cheese until it's softened, add the granulated sugar and cream together.

  7. 7

    Combine the beaten egg, orange peel, yogurt and Cointreau then mix well. Sift in the cake flour and mix until smooth.

  8. 8

    Take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll out to a thickness of 4-5 mm.

  9. 9

    Pour the mixture from Step 7 into the crust, and place the orange segments in a spiral pattern on top. Bake for about 25 minutes at 170°C.

  10. 10

    All done. Take it out of the mold once it has cooled down a little.

  11. 11

    Optionally, decorate with mint leaves (not listed in ingredients), slice and serve.
