Creating a delicious Fruit Tart is simple when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

2. Form the Dough: Add the egg yolk and cold water, mixing until just combined. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic, and chill for about 30 minutes.

3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

4. Roll Out the Dough: Once chilled, on a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press it into the pan and trim the edges.

5. Blind Bake the Crust: Prick the bottom with a fork, then line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or beans. Bake for 15 minutes, remove the weights, and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until golden brown. Let it cool completely.

6. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

7. Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.

8. Assemble the Tart: Spread the cream filling evenly into the cooled tart shell.

9. Top with Fruits: Arrange the assorted fresh fruits on top of the cream filling in a visually appealing manner.

10. Glaze (Optional): If you wish, heat apricot jam until smooth and brush it over the fruits for a glossy finish.
