Description

A delightful Whipped Strawberry Tart featuring a buttery graham cracker crust, creamy whipped cream and cream cheese filling, topped with fresh, juicy strawberries. Perfect for a refreshing no-bake dessert that’s easy to prepare and great for summer gatherings.


Ingredients

For the Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Topping

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Optional: extra strawberries or mint leaves for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan to form the crust.
  2. Bake Crust: Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes or until it turns lightly golden. Remove from oven and allow it to cool completely to ensure a crisp base for the filling.
  3. Whip Cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will give the tart its light and airy texture.
  4. Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  5. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, ensuring the filling remains light and fluffy.
  6. Assemble Tart: Spread the creamy filling evenly into the cooled tart crust.
  7. Add Topping: Arrange the sliced strawberries in a decorative pattern on top of the tart for an attractive presentation.
  8. Chill: Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours to set the filling properly and enhance flavors.
  9. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, optionally garnish with extra strawberries or mint leaves for added freshness and color.

Notes

  • Ensure the crust is fully cooled before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
  • This tart is best served chilled and consumed within 2 days for optimal freshness.
  • You can substitute or mix other berries or fruits to vary the flavor as desired.
