Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • - 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • For the cream cheese filling:
  • - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • - 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • - 1 cup heavy cream
  • For the mango topping:
  • - 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
  • - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • - 2 tablespoons water
  • - 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • For the blueberry topping:
  • - 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch tart pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar for the crust. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of the prepared tart pan.
  3. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
  4. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  5. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cooled crust.
  6. In a small saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice for the mango topping. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mangoes become soft and the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  7. Using a blender or food processor, puree the cooked mango mixture until smooth. Allow it to cool completely.
  8. Pour the mango puree over the cream cheese filling and spread it evenly.
  9. Arrange the fresh blueberries on top of the mango puree, gently pressing them into the mixture.
  10. Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  11. Once chilled, remove the tart from the refrigerator and carefully remove it from the tart pan. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
