Before you begin

Chill the 6-inch tart, glaze with strawberry jam and arrange fresh berries on top just before serving. Dry the strawberries well before arranging them; excess water dilutes the jam and makes the fruit slide.

Method 做法

01

Make and chill the pastry

Mix butter and icing sugar until smooth, blend in the beaten egg, then add the sifted cake flour. Press into a dough, wrap and freeze for 15 minutes. Roll about 5 mm thick and ease into a 6-inch tart tin, pressing into the base and sides.

02

Blind bake the shell

Line with foil or baking paper and fill with baking weights. Bake at 170°C (338°F) for about 25 minutes. Remove the liner and weights, then bake for another 10 minutes to dry the base.

Mix the whipping cream and lemon juice. Beat softened cheese and sugar smooth, then incorporate the milk, beaten egg, soured cream and cornstarch. Fill the shell about 90% full. Bake at 180°C (356°F) for about 40 minutes, until the filling has set.

✦Why blind-bake the shell?
Blind baking is worth the extra step here. It lets the pastry cook through before the moist cheesecake mixture goes in.
