To make Strawberry-Orange Tart, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
Place the cookies and 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor and blend well, until finely ground. Add the butter, and blend until moist.
Press into the bottom of a greased 9-inch pie plate and bake for 8-10 minutes, until lightly browned. Once cooked, allow to cool for 30 minutes, on a wire rack.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs yolks.
In a medium sized saucepan over a medium heat, combine ½ cup sugar and cornstarch.
Slowly whisk the milk mixture into the sugar mixture, until it comes to a boil. Boil for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously until mixture thickens. Once thickened, remove from the heat.
Slowly stir in the butter, orange rind and vanilla extract.
Pour the orange filling into the cooled crust. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and chill for at least 3 hours.
