How to Make Guava Cheese Tart
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes (this step was omitted from the original recipe, but chilling improves the crust).
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
- Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Prepare the guava filling: In a saucepan, combine guava paste, sugar, and lime juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the guava paste is melted and smooth.
- Prepare the cheese filling: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the condensed milk and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
- Assemble the tart: Spread the guava filling evenly over the baked crust. Top with the cheese filling.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese filling is set and lightly golden.
- Let cool completely before removing from the pan and serving. Enjoy!
