Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups (150g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 egg yolk, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp cold water (more if needed)
  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream, chilled
  • 1/3 cup (40g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (300g) fresh blueberries
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar. Add cold, cubed butter and work into the flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits.
  2. Add egg yolk and cold water. Stir gently until dough starts to come together. Add more water if too dry, 1 tsp at a time. Avoid overworking.
  3. Form dough into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll dough on a floured surface to about 12 inches diameter. Transfer to tart pan, press into edges, trim excess, and prick bottom with fork.
  5. Line crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake blind for 15 minutes. Remove weights and parchment, bake another 8-10 minutes until golden. Cool completely on wire rack.
  6. In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. In another bowl, whip heavy cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  7. Gently fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture until smooth. Adjust sweetness if desired.
  8. Spread filling evenly over cooled crust and smooth the top.
  9. Toss blueberries with lemon juice and arrange over filling to cover surface.
  10. Optionally dust tart with powdered sugar before serving.
  11. Refrigerate tart for at least 2 hours before serving to set and meld flavors.

Notes

Use cold butter for flaky crust and chill dough to prevent shrinking. Fold whipped cream gently to keep filling airy. Cover crust edges with foil if browning too fast. Use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps. Frozen blueberries can be used if thawed and drained well.
