Instructions:
Biscuit base
Finely mix the pecans. Apart from mixing the cookies and then bringing the two together in a container.
Add the melted butter, maple syrup and mix everything to obtain a texture of coarse sand.
Lightly grease a tart pan with edges high enough (to contain the filling). Mine is 23cm in diameter.
Tamp this mixture in the bottom of the mold and also go up on the edges. Use a tablespoon to pack well. Place in the freezer while you do the rest.
Garnish
In a bowl, whisk the cream cheese and mascarpone so that they are creamy. Then add the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice and zest.
Whisk well to obtain a smooth mixture. Then pour over the biscuit dough base, smooth and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (overnight is better).
Décor
Whip the whipped cream into a firm whipped cream with the icing sugar (optional). Fill a pastry bag with whipped cream and arrange small domes of cream all around the tart.
Cut 6 thin slices of lime. Slice half of the washer and twist the ends for a nice finish. Then place on the pie to decorate.
Zest a lime and sprinkle over the center of the pie. Then place in the refrigerator until tasting.
Notes:
Keeps in the refrigerator, ideally in a cover (to protect it from fridge odors) for 3/4 days.
