DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Sift flour and 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar into a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in egg yolks with enough water to form a ball. Knead gently on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Roll out to line an 8 inch flan ring, or tart shell. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until pastry is golden. Allow to cool.
In a large bowl, combine cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, mangoes and lemon juice. Beat until mixture is fairly smooth, but still has chunks of mangoes. Spread into baked pastry shell and top with blueberries. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar before serving.

This recipe was so exquisite! Thank you for sharing. I used nectarines instead of mangos as the mangos at the store were looking pretty sorry. It turned out great with nectarines too. This was easy to make and absolutely delicious. It looks elegant too. My boyfriend and I couldn't stop eating it.

It seemed obvious to me that the 1/2 tablespoon of butter is a typo. 1/2 cup of butter makes a beautiful crust. I made this for a pot luck, and it was a hit! I almost didn't want to tell people how easy it was. More fun to let them think I spent hours and hours making it.

It was incredibly simple to make and absolutely delicious. One suggestion: chill for at least 2-3 hours before serving for best results.

I used very fresh fruit and chilled the tart for several hours before serving, and it turned out beautifully. It's perfect for entertaining - simple but impressive.

I quite liked the mango and cream cheese combo but my husband thought the amount of mango added was a bit overpowering. The problem I had was with the crust. 1/2 tablespoon of butter seemed too little but no other reviews mentioned it so I went with it. As a result I wasn't able to cut it in to get course crumbs and had to keep adding water to hold the dough together. After a few hours in the fridge it hardened to a rock like consistency. I'd love to try this again - anyone have any suggestions?

After reading the rave reviews for this recipe, I was excited to make this. Blended mango and cream cheese is a terrible combination as prescribed in this recipe. The only components worth eating are the fresh blueberries on top and the dough - hopefully neither haven't been tainted by the filling.

Chilled for five hours before serving at a dinner party, and it was like a pie plate full of soup. It never fully set. The taste was fine, but Iwon't be making this again.

This was a really great recipe - a great way to add fruit into the cream cheese filling. I would advocate using only the freshest of each ingredient.

While the mango flavored cream cheese was tasty, mine did not set either. and there obviously isn't the right amount of butter. Use a regular shortbread recipe or buy a gramcracker crust for a short cut. I don't know how to thicken up the filling, Perhaps don't add all of the mango.

I wish I could give this zero stars. I added more butter to the crust, because it seemed like 1 tbls. wasn't enough. Even then, it was still as hard as concrete. The mango/cream cheese combination tasted like blue cheese with lemon juice. The WORST recipe I've tried off this site.
