• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Liberally butter a 9-inch tart pan with a removable base.

Place the tart pan on a baking sheet and bake until the filling has set and the cheese begins to brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes, then remove the sides and base of the tart pan.
