Crustless cheese tart with sour cream topping

Rating  5.0 from 1 reviews

Ingredients

• 2 8-ounce packs cream cheese, room temperature
• ⅔ cup + 3 tablespoons sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Combine the cream cheese and ⅔ cup of sugar in a mixing bowl, using a wooden spoon, beater or blender.
2. Add the eggs and mix thoroughly to blend the ingredients together evenly.
3. Scrape into a well-greased, 9-inch pie dish.
4. Bake at 325˚F for 35-40 minutes until just set – it will puff up slightly.
5. In the meantime, using the same bowl, combine the sour cream and vanilla extract with the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar. (This saves on washing up!).
6. Turn the oven off and remove the tart when it is done.
7. Set aside for about 3 minutes until it settles.
8. Gently spoon the sour cream mixture over the tart, starting at the sides. Spread it evenly.
9. Return to the switched-off oven for about 15 minutes until set.
10. Once cold, refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
