  • About

In this tropical fruit tart, the sweetness of the mangoes balances nicely with the tart lime flavor of the mousse.

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • ¾ cup sugar

Method

Combine the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar in a stainless steel bowl. Whisk in the lime juice.

Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water and whisk the lime mixture continually for about 5 minutes, until it is thick and mounds slightly. Remove the bowl from the stove and let the lime mousse cool for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Pour the mousse into the tart shell. Refrigerate t
