The next time you're asked to bring a dessert to the potluck, we suggest making this Lemon Cream Fruit Tart. The minute they see it, jaws are going to drop! And once they get a taste of the graham cracker crust topped with a lemony, cream cheese and yogurt filling, they're not going to stop raving about it.

What You'll Need

  • 1 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
  • 1 (.25 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup lemon Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Assorted fruit for garnish

What to Do

  1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and butter; mix well. Press mixture into bottom of 9-inch springform or tart pan. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  2. In a small, microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle gelatin over water; let stand 5 minutes. Heat in microwave on high power for 20 seconds, then stir thoroughly until gelatin is completely dissolved.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and yogurt until creamy. Add heavy cream and confectioners sugar and beat 2-3 minutes or until thickened and fluffy. Beat in lemon juice, lemon zest, and gelatin mixture until smooth. Pour lemon mixture into crust.
  4. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Garnish with fruit.

Notes

To take this over the top, in a small bowl, whisk 1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar and 1 tablespoon of your favorite coffee creamer. Drizzle over tart.
