Pioneer Woman Mango Tart Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2–3 tablespoons cold water
Filling:
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced

How To Make Pioneer Woman Mango Tart
- Make the tart crust: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cold water a little at a time until dough comes together.
- Chill the dough: Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Bake the crust: Roll out the chilled dough and press into a tart pan. Prick the bottom with a fork. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes or until golden. Let cool completely.
- Make the filling: Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- Assemble the tart: Spread the filling evenly into the cooled crust. Arrange mango slices in a circular pattern on top.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate the tart for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
