EASY FRUIT TART RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the crust: stir together the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and sugar. I like stirring with a fork so it's nice and sandy. Pour mixture into a 10-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Press into the bottom and up the sides, chill until ready to fill.
• Make the filing: add heavy whipping cream to a large bowl and beat with a hand or a stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate while making filling.
• Add cream cheese, sugar and vanilla to another large bowl. Mix using a hand or a stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
• Add whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and use a spatula to fold it in. This will take a while, fold it gently being careful not to break the whipped cream. Do not stir or beat, fold it carefully.
• Press filling into prepared crust. Chill while preparing fruit. Don't top with fruit until within a few hours of serving.
• Slice fruit and arrange on top of cheesecake. Add the jam to a small bowl and microwave until smooth, about 30 seconds, then stir in the lime juice or water. Use a pastry brush to brush the glaze over the fruit to make it shiny.
• Serve chilled within one day. You can make the cheesecake up to 24 hours ahead, just don't top it until the day of serving.

CREAM CHEESE TART SHELLS
