Step-by-Step Process of Making Lemon Marshmallow Tart
Step #1
Set your oven to 350°F and prepare it for baking.
Step #2
In a food processor, pulse together the flour, confectioners’ sugar, and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
Step #3
Take a small bowl, and whisk together the egg yolk and ice water. Add the mixture to the food processor and pulse until the dough comes together.
Step #4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until it forms a ball. Flatten the dough into a disk and wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
Step #5
Roll out the chilled dough to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork, then bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
Step #6
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and eggs. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
Step #7
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the butter until it is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step #8
Pour the lemon filling into the cooled tart crust and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the filling is set.
Step #9
To make the marshmallow topping, combine the egg whites, sugar, water, and cream of tartar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Whisk constantly until the mixture is hot and the sugar has dissolved.
Step #10
Remove the bowl from the heat and use an electric mixer to beat the mixture at high speed until stiff peaks form and the mixture is thick and glossy.
Step #11
Spoon the marshmallow topping over the cooled tart, using a spatula to smooth it out.
Step #12
Use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallow topping until it is lightly golden brown.
Step #13
Chill the tart in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Step #14
Enjoy your delicious lemon tart with marshmallow topping!
