Recipe Introduction
This is a refreshing, light cheesecake that is easy to make. Because it is baked as a tart, it looks impressive topped with fresh fruit. You can bake it in a tart pan with a removable bottom, but often it's difficult to remove the fluted side of that pan neatly. Use a springform pan instead, with simple, straight sides. Just be sure to make this early enough in the day so it has time to chill.
