Time 40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

14 whole graham crackers
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 batch curd
Whipped cream, for topping
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest, plus 1/2 cup lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)
Pinch of salt
3 large eggs plus 3 egg yolks
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Make the curd: Whisk the sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk the whole eggs and yolks in a small bowl, then whisk into the lemon mixture. Cook the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it's thick like pudding, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter a few pieces at a time until incorporated. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl, pushing it through with a rubber spatula. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until completely set, at least 4 hours and up to 5 days.
  • Make the tart: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Break the graham crackers into pieces, then pulse in a food processor with the sugar until finely ground; drizzle in the melted butter and pulse to combine.
  • Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and about 1 inch up the side of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
  • Pour the curd into the prepared crust and gently press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours. Remove the springform ring and transfer the tart to a platter. Top with whipped cream.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

I was disappointed with this tart. The crust was soggy and the filling was too runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
