MINI BLUEBERRY TARTS
I served this recipe to my family while we were on vacation and they were all amazed! The best part: I didn't spend tons of time on it thanks to refrigerated pie crust. Watch your mini tarts around the 13-minute mark to make sure they don't brown too quickly. If you like, sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar for a beautiful finishing touch.-Allison Bell, Hillsdale, New Jersey

Steps:
- Pulse flour, confectioners' sugar, and a pinch of salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter, and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. With processor running, add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a dough forms (do not process more than 20 seconds).
- Cut dough in half; shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 day. Cut 1 disk into 12 pieces; on a lightly floured work surface, flatten each piece into a 2-inch round. Press a round onto bottom and up sides of each cup of a 12-cup nonstick mini-muffin tin. Repeat with remaining disk of dough and second muffin tin. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and zest, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Add berries; toss to coat. Fill shells with berry mixture. Bake until crusts are brown and filling is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Let cool slightly in tins. Run a knife around tarts; remove from tins. Let cool completely on rack.
NO-BAKE BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE MINI TARTS
These two-bite tarts (three if you're daintier than I) are ideal for entertaining - they're perfect finger food, they look great, and they take - I'm not kidding - not even 10 minutes to make. Taste-wise, the filling is just right. Sour cream, cream cheese, whipping cream, lemon zest, brown sugar, and a little vanilla. It's the perfect base for those beautiful bursts of blueberries.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl with an electric hand mixer or in a stand mixer afixed with the paddle attachment, beat together the brown sugar, sour cream, and vanilla on medium speed until smooth, about one minute.
- Add the cream cheese and lemon zest and continue beating until smooth, about one more minute.
- Add the heavy whipping cream and beat for about one more minute until slightly fluffy and smooth.
- Fill mini tart shells with cream cheese filling. You can spoon in the filling, or place the filling in a freezer bag, snip off the end, and pipe it in.
- Top each tart with three blueberries. Serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries have the best flavor and texture for this recipe. If you can't find fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help it to keep its shape and prevent it from spreading too much.
- Bake the tarts until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the tarts are cooked through.
- Let the tarts cool slightly before serving: This will help the filling to set and make the tarts easier to handle.

These mini blueberry tarts are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. The buttery crust and sweet blueberry filling are a classic combination that everyone will love.
