Italian Lemon Mascarpone Tart Dessert

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.

  2. In a food processor, combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt. Pulse a few times to mix.

  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the mixture and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan, creating an even layer. Dock the bottom with a fork.

  5. Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

  6. In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, eggs, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and well combined.

  7. Pour the mascarpone mixture into the cooled tart crust, spreading it out evenly.

  8. Bake the tart for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the filling is set and slightly golden on top.

  9. Once baked, remove the tart from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill and set.

  10. Garnish with fresh berries just before serving.
