Raspberry Cream Cheese Tart Recipes

RASPBERRY CREAM CHEESE HEART TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
• Place the fresh raspberries, cream cheese and honey in a medium bowl. Using the back of a fork, mash the raspberries with the cream cheese, leaving some pieces of raspberry intact. Set aside.
• Unroll the pie dough. (If using homemade dough, roll 1/4 inch thick.) Using a 4-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, stamp out 20 to 22 hearts.
• Arrange half of the hearts on a lightly floured work surface (these are the bottom crusts). Set aside the remaining hearts (these are the top crusts). Place 2 teaspoons of the raspberry cream cheese in the center of each bottom crust, leaving a 1/4-inch border around the edge.
• Cut a heart, with a 3/4-inch cutter, out of the center of each top crust. Reserve and bake the smaller hearts along with the tarts, if desired.
• Lightly dip your index finger into a cup of water and "brush" the border of a bottom crust. Top with a top crust and gently crimp the edges shut with the tines of a fork. Repeat with the remaining crusts.
• Place the tarts and the reserved hearts on the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• For pastry mix flour, sugar, & salt in lg bowl. Add butter & mix w/ hands until it resembles coarse crumbs. Make well in middle. Combine yolk w/ ice water in sm bowl, whisking to blend; pour in well & work in to bind dough until it holds together w/o being too wet or sticky. Squeeze sm bit together, if it's crumbly add more ice water, 1 tbsp at a time. Form dough into disk & wrap in plastic; refrigerate 30 min. Roll out* on lightly floured surface in 12-in circle & 1/4-in thick. Carefully roll dough up onto pin (this may take a little practice) & lay inside 9-in tart pan w/ removable bottom. Press into pan so fits tightly; press edges into sides. Press evenly into every nook & corner of ring, esp. scalloped edges. Shave off excess dough w/ knife. Prick slightly w/ fork all over. Put fridge for 15 min. *As mentioned above, it's very difficult to roll dough & instead I carefully grated as much chilled dough as possible into pan, tearing rest. I pressed into all areas of pan, being absolutely sure it covered every surface. Preheat to 350. Place pan on cookie sheet. Line tart w/ foil & add pie weights/dried beans to keep sides from buckling. Bake 30 min then remove foil & weights. Using pastry brush, lightly coat crust w/ beaten egg white. Return to oven & bake another 8 min until golden in color not brown. It should be cooked but light in color so it won't burn on second bake. Set aside to cool. For filling, in electric mixer place cream cheese & process until smooth. Add sugar & beat until incorporated. Add eggs 1 at a time & process until combined. Add remaining ingredients & beat until well blended & smooth. Place pan on larger baking pan. Carefully pour filling into pre-baked shell. Arrange raspberries evenly around tart & bake for 30-35 min or until filling is set (test by gently shaking pan). Transfer to wire rack to cool. Serve accompanied by softly whipped cream & fresh raspberries. Refrigerate leftovers.
