Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 0.5 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons apricot jam
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Use the bottom of a glass to compact it well. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, orange zest, and orange juice using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled crust using a spatula.
Slice the fresh strawberries and arrange them decoratively on top of the cream cheese layer.
In a small saucepan, heat the apricot jam and water over low heat until it becomes a thin glaze. Stir constantly to avoid burning.
Using a pastry brush, gently glaze the tops of the strawberries with the apricot mixture to give them a shiny finish.
Refrigerate the tart for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow it to set completely.
Slice into wedges and serve chilled. Enjoy your Quick N Easy Strawberry Orange Tart!
