Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 10- inch x 10-inch frozen puff pastry sheet (thawed)
1 cup heavy whipping cream (chilled)
1 8- ounce box cream cheese (softened (room temperature))
3 tablespoons + 3 tablespoons honey (divided)
Zest of 1 medium lemon
2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 6-ounce packs Driscoll's raspberries (about 3 cups)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or to the temperature recommended on your package of puff pastry. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Sprinkle a little flour on your pastry surface and, with a rolling pin, roll pastry sheet to approx 11-inches by 14-inches in size. Transfer pastry to baking sheet. With a butter knife, lightly score a 1/2-inch border around the edges, then fold the edge up and toward the center, pressing lightly, to create a neat border. Score the center lightly with a knife, taking care to not cut all of the way through (but if you accidentally do, it'll be okay). Bake until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes, or the time indicated on the package of puff pastry. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Affix a stand mixer or hand mixer with the whisk attachment. In the bowl of the mixer or in a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Scoop whipped cream into a medium bowl. To the bowl of the mixer or the large bowl, add the cream cheese, 3 tablespoons honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whip until smooth and a little fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Fold cream cheese mixture into whipping cream, gently stirring and folding just until blended. Pile the filling into the center of the cooled puff pastry tart shell and, with a butter knife. spread the filling gently toward the edges. Line the top with raspberries, bottoms up. Drizzle with remaining 3 tablespoons honey. Cut into squares and serve.

Tips:

Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor.
Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
Chill the tart for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. Just trim the edges of the pastry dough to fit the plate.
You can also use a food processor to make the pastry dough. Just pulse the ingredients until they come together.
If you don't have powdered sugar, you can make your own by grinding granulated sugar in a food processor or blender.
