Valentine’s Day Tart Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 pre-made tart crust
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 4 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup raspberry jam
• Fresh raspberries, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place your pre-made tart crust in a 9-inch tart pan. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 10 minutes.
2. While the crust is baking, heat the heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is heated through.
3. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the bowl, whisking constantly, until combined.
4. Spread the raspberry jam onto the bottom of the pre-baked crust. Pour the custard mixture on top of the jam.
5. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Let cool at room temperature before serving.
6. Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve.

Verdict:

This Valentine’s Day tart is the perfect dessert to impress your loved ones. The tangy lemon custard and sweet raspberry jam complement each other perfectly, while the fresh raspberries add a burst of freshness to each bite. The crust is flaky and provides the perfect contrast in texture. This tart is sure to be a hit with anyone who tries it.

Serving Suggestions:

This tart is delicious on its own, but can also be served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Pair with a glass of sparkling wine or champagne for the ultimate Valentine’s Day treat.
