Stovetop Cheese Tart on plateA ThriftyFun reader had asked what they could do if they did not have a tart pan in order to make a tart recipe I had posted here. It made me think about other ways to make a tart, when there is no tart pan, or maybe not even having the use of an oven. This is my recipe on how to make a cheese tart in a pan on the stovetop. It's how my grandma used to make such desserts before she got her first oven installed. This is a cross between a standard tart and a cheesecake. I hope you give this a try. It's pretty fun!
