Preparation of the Tart Crust
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt.
  3. Add the softened butter and mix until crumbly.
  4. Gently stir in egg yolk and vanilla until the dough comes together.
  5. Press the dough into the bottom and sides of a greased tart pan.
  6. Prick the base with a fork to prevent bubbling and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
Preparation of the Filling
  1. While the crust cools, whip the heavy cream with sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  2. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  4. Spread the creamy filling evenly on top of the cooled crust.
Preparation of the Glaze and Assembly
  1. Heat the strawberry jelly with water until smooth and pourable.
  2. Arrange fresh strawberries on top of the filling and brush the glaze over them.
  3. Refrigerate the tart for at least an hour to allow flavors to meld and glaze to set.
