Press the dough into a removable bottom tart pan with a diameter of 9 inches, pressing well with your fingers
Let it chill in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes
Prepare the filling: in a food processor or blender, beat all the ingredients until smooth
Pour it over the crust and bake in the preheated oven until the cake is golden brown and creamy (about 1 hour)
Let it cool in the oven before refrigerating for at least an hour
