While the crispy, buttery lace cookies add addictive crunch to this dessert, they're not mandatory. The citrusy creaminess of this Italian-style lemon tart makes it an impressive finale all on its own.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
1 cup (4 ounces) whole-wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup turbinado sugar
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
Instructions
Whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and whole-wheat flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl; set aside.
Simmer lemon juice and zest in a small skillet over medium heat until syrupy and golden, 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter, both sugars, and lemon reduction on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add whole egg and yolk and beat until just combined. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture; beat until just combined.
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
Transfer dough to a work surface, flatten into a disc, then wrap in plastic and freeze for 10 minutes. Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a 12" round, about 1/4-inch thick. Fit dough into tart pan, pressing it into the fluted sides. If the dough breaks, just press it back together with your fingers. Trim the excess by running a rolling pin over the tart pan. Prick the pastry several times with a fork and freeze tart shell until firm, about 15 minutes. Bake on the middle rack until the tart shell is golden and dry, 30 minutes. Let cool completely.
Reduce oven temperature to 275 °F.
