  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 0.25 cups lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the Tart Shell
  • 1 pre-made tart shell

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel and chop ripe mangoes, blend until smooth to create approximately 1 1/2 cups of mango puree. Set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  4. Pour in the lemon juice and vanilla extract, stirring until combined.
  5. Gently fold the mango puree into the mixture until uniform in color and texture.
  6. Carefully pour the mango curd mixture into the pre-made tart shell, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the tart in the oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Cooling and Serving
  1. Allow the tart to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
