  • 1 cup heavy cream cold
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest fresh
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Mix finely crushed Biscoff cookies with melted butter until all crumbs are coated and the mixture holds together.
  2. Step 2: Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a tart pan. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to compact the crust. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes to set.
  3. Step 3: Whip cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
  4. Step 4: In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  5. Step 5: Add fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and melted white chocolate to the cream cheese mixture. Stir until silky and combined.
  6. Step 6: Gently fold whipped cream into the lemon mixture, keeping the filling light and airy.
  7. Step 7: Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Step 8: Refrigerate the tart for at least 4 hours or overnight to fully set and meld flavors.
  9. Step 9: When ready to serve, decorate with fresh raspberries, thin lemon slices, edible chamomile flowers (optional), fresh basil leaves, and crushed pistachios for a stunning finish.

Notes

Substitute Biscoff cookies with graham crackers or digestive biscuits if needed. Use dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream for a vegan version. Try adding lavender syrup or swap lemon zest for lime zest for a flavor twist. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days; freeze without garnish for up to 1 month.
