Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool.

2

Make the almond praline

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped almonds and sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar melts and coats the almonds. Pour the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread it into a single layer. Let it cool completely, then break into pieces.

3

Prepare the filling

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the ube puree and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and creamy.

4

Assemble the tart

Spread the ube filling evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust. Top with blueberries, pressing them gently into the filling. Sprinkle the almond praline over the top.

5

Chill and serve

Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours to set. Serve chilled, topped with whipped cream if desired.
