Peach and Blueberry Tart with Cream Cheese Filling image

Here's a new take on cheesecake, only easier and in tart form. The no-bake cream-cheese filling floats on a crisp and buttery press-in crust. Top it with thin peach wedges (peeled for a luxurious finish) and blueberries, both tossed in sugar, lemon, and salt to intensify their summery essence.

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh juice
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup heavy cream
3 peaches (1 pound)
1 cup fresh blueberries
Mint leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Beat butter with confectioners' sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low; add flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt and beat until just combined and crumbly (do not overmix). Press evenly into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch square tart pan with a removable bottom. Dock bottom at 1-inch intervals with the tines of a fork. Freeze 15 minutes.
  • Bake until golden brown and set, 30 to 33 minutes. Let cool completely. (Crust can be kept at room temperature, wrapped in plastic, for up to 3 days.)
  • Beat together cream cheese, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon juice, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar on medium-high speed until creamy. With mixer running, slowly add cream and beat until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. (You should have about 2 cups.) Spread mixture into crust; refrigerate 1 to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, peel peaches, if desired; cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Transfer to a bowl and stir in berries and remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Just before serving, spoon macerated fruit over tart and drizzle some of juice from bowl over it. Sprinkle with mint and serve, with any remaining fruit on the side.
