Crust
Combine biscuit crumbs with butter. Press this mixture firmly onto the bottom and sides of a 9- inch TART pan.
Blind bake crust for 20-25 minutes until the crust is slightly golden. Set aside and let cool.
Cream Cheese Filling
In a bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Set aside.
In a different bowl, whip the whipping cream until it reaches soft peaks.
Fold the whipping cream into the cream cheese and sugar mixture until well combined.
Pour the the cream cheese mixture into the cooled crust. If the cheese tart is not going to be served immediately, refrigerate until needed.
Topping
You can simply peel and cut the fruits and arrange/throw them onto the cheese tart to your liking and call it a day!
OR, if you want to impress your neighbors, arrange them into a "flower- like" arrangement.
For the mango topping, peel both mangoes and cut the fleshes on both sides of the pit.Slice the mango thinly across the fleshes. (refer to picture)
Peel the kiwis and cut the kiwis into quarters. Slice these kiwi quarters into thin slices.
Arrange the fruit slices starting for the sides and gradually move towards the middle. Slightly overlap these fruits to give the "flower" effect!
Serve immediately!
