No-Bake Dessert - Strawberry Mascarpone Tart
This delicious no-bake strawberry mascarpone tart recipe is a perfect summer dessert but delicious for any occasion any time of year.
Ingredients
Crust:
- 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons almond butter, melted
Filling:
- 16 ounces mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 16 ounces fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- fresh mint leaves, for garnishing (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Hand mix the graham cracker crumbs, almond flour, butter, and almond butter until combined and it's all moistened. Press the crust into a 10-inch round tart pan. Place in the freezer while preparing the filling.
- Prepare the filling: In another bowl stir the mascarpone, sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract until combined and it's nice and creamy. Evenly spread over the graham crust, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- While the tart is in the fridge, slice the strawberries, cut off the stems and cut vertically into thin slices. Remove the tart from the fridge and place the strawberry slices onto the mascarpone filling in any fashion desired. Drizzle the tart with honey, then garnish with sliced almonds and if desired the mint.
- Serve immediately or keep refrigerated, loosely covered, until ready to serve.
Notes
Before serving but after the tart has set is when you want to garnish with the sliced almonds and mint if using.
Can be made with other berries or a combination of berries but we loved how it tasted (and looked) with the strawberries.
You can also top with vanilla ice cream or whip cream with a hint of vanilla for an even more decadent treat. Although this no-bake tart is decadent just the way it is too.

As you can see it’s an easy recipe to make, the part that takes the longest is slicing all of the strawberries. The one-hour “cooking” time is just passive time while you wait for this no-bake strawberry tart to set in the fridge. I don’t know about but I like a recipe that only takes 15 minutes of prep time and then I can walk away and just take it out of the fridge to serve an hour later or whenever I want. Although I don’t think I can last more than an hour knowing how delicious this no-bake strawberry mascarpone tart tastes!
I totally plan to make this yummy no-bake strawberry mascarpone cheese tart for Canada Day or maybe show my daughter and hubby how to make it for my birthday which is before Canada Day. I told you I can come up with any excuse to make this yummy no-bake dessert.

I have wanted to cook with mascarpone cheese, ever since I saw celebrity chef Giada DiLaurentiis cook with it on Food Network. You can even turn this into a Fourth Of July dessert, by topping the tart with blueberries!
This pie looks so beautiful! I think I will make it BUT there is no way that I will get it decorated this pretty.
This looks fabulous! I would also end up trying it with different types of fruit since I’m the only strawberry lover in my family.
This looks amazing for the strawberries from our garden!

This looks absolutely delicious and seems easy enough that I can include my 8 year old son in the “making” process. He loves to help in the kitchen.
(No-Bake Dessert – Strawberry Mascarpone Tart) My Mother use to make a fruit mascarpone years ago when I was a little girl that was so good. She always used a combination of different fruits on hers. All of her friends just loved it too.
I’m looking for no bake recipes right now in this heat. This looks beautiful and I bet it tastes amazing.
This looks amazing! Perfect for those summer BBQ’s
Looks like a tasty and healthy recipe. Can’t wait to make this for my family.
I am SO going to make this for our family reunion this year! Love that it’s no bake!

A masterpiece!! I like how it’s no bake.. easy to do right

I’ve never heard of this dessert before, but it looks delicious to me! In my opinion, this is one of the prettiest desserts that I have ever seen! I am going to make this especially on a hot summer day, because I don’t have to use the oven. I shared on Facebook and Pinterest. ? Thank you for sharing!!
It looks delicious, but honestly I have no idea what mascarpone is. I’m guessing since it’s a dessert, it might be like a cream cheese of some kind? Anyway, I was a bit confused because I saw it was no-bake (which I always love in summer), and then looked at the directions and it said 1 hour bake time, but read the recipe and it was just in the fridge for an hour…whew, I thought I might actually have to turn on the oven.
I’ll have to try this for next Sundays dinner.
Oh my!! I am loving this No-Bake Dessert – Strawberry Mascarpone Tart recipe!! Strawberry is my very most fav fruit.its so versatile and great tasting!! From pies and tarts to short cakes and smoothies!! Cant go wrong!!

This seems like a great recipe and lends itself to lots of variations. I’d like to try mixed berries and maybe lemon instead of almond. Any way would be great for a summer soiree
I LOVE anything with strawberries in it…!!
Once I saw to add blueberries, I decided this will be my July 4th dessert. It’s perfect!

This looks beautiful and sounds like it would be so refreshing. Perfect for summer!
This would be perfect for all the strawberries I just bought.
This looks YUMMY, but where is a good place to find mascarpone cheese?
Hi Sheryl,
It really depends on where you live. Some grocery stores carry it in the deli section, Italian specialty stores, specialty delis etc. I find it in abundance where I live but I can’t speak for other areas.
I love strawberries and this is so pretty. I love how easy it is too. I pinned so I can try this!
This looks beautiful and easy to make think I;m going to make this for our father’s day BBQ
Wow, what a beautiful dessert. It especially looks good by the slice. Thanks for posting!
I used to love strawberry pies when I was a kid (my brother would bring them back from the Shoney’s where he worked – now the last Shoney’s in town has closed, but that’s neither here nor there). Now I love tarts. These look amazing!
This sounds like a pretty easy dessert perfect for summer get-togethers.
It is strawberry season here in Florida, and I am always looking for recipes with strawberries. This looks amazing. I love the combination of strawberries with mascarpone cheese. I would love to make this for 4th of July family get-together and add blueberries to make it “red, white and blue.”
What a wonderful dessert! Perfect for the finish for a lovely meal on a hot summer evening.
I love strawberries and this looks like a wow dessert! That’s what people would say when they first saw it..gets your attention fast.
Thank you for sharing. This looks wonderful. It looks to good to eat.
What a gorgeous dessert and doesn’t look too difficult to create.
Very pretty but the prep has to be over the 15 minutes just to cut and then arrange those strawberries. More labor intensive than I want to deal with.
Hi Jayne, you don’t have to cut them the same way we did, that’s up to you so yes it can be less time.
This tart looked so delicious that I bookmarked it to make later.
thisis pretty much my dream dessert!
First off, your new blog design is perfect! I’ve been following you for years and have always enjoyed your content. You’ve really taken it to a whole new level with the layout, design, and photography now. And let me say, this no-bake tart is screaming my name!
I have made this before and it is amazing! Presentation makes this the perfect dessert to bring to picnics or BBQs! I like to add blueberries or raspberries also to mix it up.
I love strawberries. This dessert looks amazing.

I love strawberries and this looks really good. No Bake that is a job I like to have when cooking ha ha.
Looks delicious! Love the strawberry “art” on top. ???
The recipe looks amazing. Will definitely try it this summer for the kids and family.
I love this stuff. I make them often.
This sounds amazing. I am going to try this recipe.
I like to bake but not in the summer when it is so hot. This no bake recipe would be perfect for one of those days and it looks delicious too.
This sounds yummy! I’m not sure that I will be able to find this type of cheese. Is there another kind that can be used?
You can use cream cheese mixed with whip cream but I would be surprised if you could not find mascarpone, try bigger grocery stores, specialty delis etc.. otherwise here’s how to substitute 🙂 https://www.gourmetsleuth.com/ingredients/detail/mascarpone-cheese
This sounds delicious. It is the perfect, decadent summer dessert.
(No-Bake Dessert – Strawberry Mascarpone Tart) I am going to make this strawberry tart for our Memorial Day weekend family get together and celebration.
