A Lemon Bliss Tart sounds delightful! Here’s a simple recipe you can try for a refreshing, tangy, and sweet dessert:
Ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- Pinch of salt
For the filling:
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional, for a creamier texture)
For the topping:
- Whipped cream or meringue (optional)
- Fresh lemon zest or slices for garnish
Instructions:
1. Prepare the crust:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter, and salt. Mix until everything is evenly combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a tart pan (or pie pan) to form an even layer.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden. Let it cool while you make the filling.
2. Make the filling:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and egg yolks until smooth and fully combined.
- If you want a slightly creamier filling, fold in the heavy cream.
3. Fill the crust:
- Pour the lemon filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
4. Cool and chill:
- Allow the tart to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours to fully set.
5. Serve:
- Top with whipped cream, meringue, or fresh lemon zest or slices before serving for an extra touch of flavor.
