Creamy Tarts with Fruit



Creamy Tarts w/Fruit

Made these for Easter, and they were kind of addicting :)

Ingredients:

1 -8oz package softened cream cheese
1 -14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 roll of Fillo (Phyllo) dough (or you can buy a few packages of already made fillo shells)
1/2 stick melted butter (salted or not)

Heat oven to 350 degrees. 
Thaw fillo dough for about an hour. Enough where it is easy to handle and won't crack. You may want to cover with a damp cloth or paper towel so they don't dry out.
Cut a 2 to 2.5 inch wide piece. Take one sheet at a time and brush with butter, until you have five sheets total on top of each other. Cut into 2 to 2.5 inch squares. Shape into mini muffin cups (see photo). 
Bake for 7 to 10 mins or until lightly browned.

While baking, or after you've finished about 2 dozen or so fillo cups, beat cream cheese until smooth. Slowly add condensed milk.
When mixed well add lemon juice. Set aside, do not place in fridge.

Fill fillo shells and top with favorite fruit, chocolate, or topping of sweet topping of your choice.

thanks!!
