Time 40m

Yield 1 tart

Number Of Ingredients 12

2/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted until golden and cooled completely
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup vanilla wafer crumbs (from about 30 1-1/2 inch cookies)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 large eggs, beaten lightly
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (from about 4 limes)
1 tablespoon freshly grated lime zest (from about 2 limes)

Steps:

  • Make crust:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and butter a 9-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim.
  • In a food processor pulse almonds, sugar and salt until almonds are ground fine.
  • In a bowl toss nut mixture with cookie crumbs and butter until combined well.
  • Sprinkle half of crumb mixture onto bottom of pan near rim, pressing evenly up side.
  • Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture onto bottom and press evenly over bottom, joining edge.

  • In a heavy saucepan cook sugar, butter, eggs and lime juice over moderately low heat, whisking frequently until thick enough to hold marks of whisk and first bubbles appear on surface -- about 12-15 minutes.
  • Stir in zest and cool. (Filling may be made 1 week ahead and chilled, its surface covered with plastic wrap.).
  • Spoon filling evenly into crust and cover surface with a buttered round of wax paper.
  • Chill tart, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 24.
