Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

All-purpose flour, for dusting
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 pint blueberries
2 cups halved strawberries
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the tarts: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, lay out the puff pastry. Cut the puff pastry sheets in half, making 4 rectangles. Place 2 puff pastry rectangles on each sheet pan. Set aside.
  • Add the blueberries and strawberries to separate bowls. Divide the granulated sugar and lemon juice between the bowls. Season each with a pinch of salt and stir until well combined.
  • Divide the blueberries between 2 of the puff pastry rectangles, leaving a 1/4-inch border on all sides. Do the same with the strawberries and the remaining puff pastry rectangles. Pinch the corners of each rectangle, creating a slight lip. Brush the edges with the cream.
  • Bake in the lower half of the oven until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes.
  • For the whipped cream: While the tarts bake, add the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to a large bowl. Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip until soft and billowy. Transfer to a serving bowl and chill until ready to serve.
  • Transfer the tarts to a cutting board. Let the tarts cool slightly before slicing approximately 6 times across each tart to create thin slices. Transfer to a serving platter. Scatter the mint leaves over the tart pieces and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve alongside the whipped cream.

2 c powdered sugar (or more until desired consistsncy
c favorite fruits

  • 3. Using small amounts at a time roll out and cut into rounds.
  • 4. Bake at 350 for 16-20 minutes or until firm depending on oven.
  • 5. While they are baking mix the cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar.
  • 6. Cool rounds add cream cheese mixture and fruits sprinkle with small amount of powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking and becoming too crispy.
  • Use fresh fruit: Fresh fruit will have the best flavor and texture in your tarts.
  • Don't over-mix the filling: Over-mixing the filling will make it tough.
  • Bake the tarts until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the tarts are cooked through and have a delicious flavor.
  • Let the tarts cool slightly before serving: This will allow the filling to set and prevent it from becoming runny.
