Updated March 26, 2019 Cinco de Mayo is on Saturday. Who is having a party? Even if you aren’t throwing a big bash, you still need to celebrate with good food. I am going to party all day long. It is the perfect excuse to eat chips, salsa, and guacamole from sun up to sun down:) To balance things out, I think I will eat a slice of this Key Lime Tart. It is the perfect Cinco de Mayo dessert.
Josh is a lime fanatic and his favorite dessert, hands down, is this Key Lime Tart. He makes it every year for his birthday. I offer to make him his special Key Lime Tart, but he prefers to do it on his own. Maybe he doesn’t trust me, he is very picky about his Key Lime Tart. He loves a thick tart crust with a creamy “pucker me up” filling. If you can’t find key limes, you can use regular limes, but the little key limes are so cute. I love them! You can also buy bottled key lime juice if you are in a pinch. The tart dough is easy to make, you combine all of the ingredients in the food processor. You do have to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, so make sure you start early enough before your big party! The key lime filling is also easy to make. This is a great tart to serve at parties because it is so easy to make, but impressive to serve. Everyone loves it! You can serve the tart with whipped cream or straight up!
Add this Key Lime Tart to your Cinco de Mayo menu. You and your party guests will not be disappointed. And if you eat the entire tart before the guests arrive, I won’t tell:) Sometimes it is hard to share, especially when it comes to dessert.
