Cream Cheese Tart
I wanted to make this recipe for a very long time. I wanted to make this tart using a proper cream cheese and was looking for cream cheese to make this, but sadly i couldn't get it anywhere in my place. When we visited goa and we went to a super market there and i was very excited to see cream cheese there, immediately i grabbed it and was thinking to make this as well as a few more recipes.
About this Recipe
A tart is a baked dish with a filling on top of a pastry base and an open top that is not covered with pastry. The pastry is usually shortcrust; the filling can be sweet or savoury, though modern tarts are usually fruit-based, with custard on the side. Tartlet refers to a miniature tart, such as egg tarts. There are no clear distinctions
between the categories of tart, flan, quiche and pie.

Ingredients for No Bake Cream Cheese Tart Recipe :
Cream Cheese :
Cream cheese is a fresh, soft, smooth-tasting cheese made with cream or a milk-cream mixture. It has a mild, sweet flavour with a pleasant tang. It has a smooth texture, is spreadable (at room temperature), and can be used in both sweet and savoury dishes.
Digestive Biscuits :
It has a strong savoury aroma and a wholemeal flavour with a hint of sweetness, making it the ideal accompaniment to cheese or chutney. This biscuit has a lightly sweet flavour with subtle creamy, buttery notes; however, a richer wheat flavour would have provided a welcome balance.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
