Cheesecake and blueberry tart – notes
I baked this tart for my husband’s work, and I hear that everyone really liked it :) Besides, what’s not to like? ;) Shortcrust pastry? Delicious! Cheesecake filling – even more delicious, plus juicy and tasty blueberries and sweet chocolate glaze. It’s the perfect cake for warm summer afternoons. Perfect with a cup of coffee or tea. You must try this recipe and save it for later – you can easily do it on my Instagram profile – I warmly invite you.
What ingredients are needed to prepare a cheesecake tart?
To bake such a tart with blueberries, you will need a few basic ingredients. Below I list the products I used and possible substitutes.
- butter – I used extra butter with 82% fat content; you can also ultimately use a butter mix or vegetable butter – but the dough will taste a bit different!
- cheese – I used mascarpone cheese – you can easily buy it in any Lidl or Biedronka; you can also use good quality full-fat or semi-fat quark cheese – if you have it in a block, you need to grind it twice beforehand with a meat grinder.
- pudding powder – you can use vanilla or cream pudding powder here – you add the powder to the cheesecake mixture – you don’t cook the pudding beforehand – it can also be pudding with sugar – in that case, you can add a little less regular sugar to the filling.
- blueberries – fresh fruit will be best here, but out of season you can use frozen fruit – thaw them beforehand and remove excess liquid before placing them on the cheesecake mixture.
- whipping cream – I used UHT cream in a carton with 36% fat content; it can also be 36% cream.
Can shortcrust pastry for a tart be rolled out?
Of course, you can knead the dough so that it forms a nice and uniform mass. Then, to line the baking pan with it, you need to roll it out thinly. I preferred to finish preparing the dough earlier, when it hadn’t yet combined into a smooth dough. Thanks to its loose, crumbly form, I could easily line the pan with it, without the need to roll out the dough.
How to store a tart with cheese and blueberries?
This tart does not need to be stored in the refrigerator – after baking and cooling, you can transfer it to a container with a lid, or cover it with a cake dome, so that the pastry stays fresh longer. At room temperature, it can sit out for about 2-3 days – if it’s not too hot. If the pastry is to last longer, then store it in the refrigerator so it doesn’t spoil from the fruit.
I hope that such a tart with quark cheese and blueberries will also grace your table. I would be very happy if you then share your impressions in a comment under the recipe :)
