Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

9 graham crackers (each 2 1/2 by 5 inches)
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
6 ounces bar cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 pound fresh sweet cherries, such as Bing, pitted and halved
1 tablespoon seedless raspberry jam

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, pulse graham crackers and 2 tablespoons sugar until finely ground. Add butter, and process until combined. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Using the base of a dry measuring cup, firmly press mixture into bottom and up sides of pan. Bake until browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese, vanilla, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add cream, and beat until soft peaks form; spread mixture in cooled crust. Scatter cherries on top.
  • In a small saucepan, combine jam and 1 teaspoon water; heat over low until liquefied, about 2 minutes. Using a pastry brush, dab cherries with glaze. Refrigerate tart at least 30 minutes or, covered, up to 1 day.

This tart was amazing! I loved the combination of the sweet cherries and the creamy almond filling. The crust was also perfect. I will definitely be making this again.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll use less sugar in the filling next time.

This tart was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was too sweet. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of cherries, but I still enjoyed this tart. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and smooth. I think it would be even better with a different fruit, like blueberries or raspberries.
