PUMPKIN TARTS
Recently, I was asked to bake for a wedding and asked if I could make this dessert. I was so excited when I realized this was a recipe I had been looking for, but had never found. I was thrilled at how awesome they tasted when you bite into them. How could they not taste good with all that cream cheese? When my friend came to pick up the tarts, she ate 4 before she ever left my house.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Make the pastry dough by creaming together 12 ounces of cream cheese with 1 pound of butter and the sugar in a large bowl until thoroughly blended. Mix in the flour, a little at a time, until the dough is workable. Cut the dough into 4 equal-sized pieces, roll the pieces into balls, and refrigerate until needed.
- To make the filling, mash 12 ounces of cream cheese with brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl until smooth and well combined; beat in eggs, one at a time, incorporating each egg before adding the next one. Mix in the pumpkin, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract until the filling is smooth.
- Cut each dough ball in half, and cut each half into 12 pieces (96 total pieces). Working in batches, press each small piece of dough into the bottom and up the sides of mini muffin cups. Fill the little crusts almost to the top with the pumpkin filling. Refrigerate unused dough until you need it to make the next batch.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and the crusts are lightly golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
- Mash 1/2 cup of butter, the shortening, and 8 ounces of cream cheese together in a bowl until thoroughly combined, and mix in the confectioners' sugar and marshmallow creme until smooth and creamy. Spread or pipe the frosting onto the cooled tarts. Sprinkle each tart with a few chopped pecans. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:
- For Pumpkin-Apple Filling:.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Toss apples, pumpkin and lemon juice in a large casserole dish, cover and bake for 2-2 ½ hours, until very soft.
- Allow to cool slightly, then add apples, pumpkin and any liquid to a food processor and puree completely, making sure peels are finely ground. Alternatively, use a food mill to remove the peels and seeds.
- Scrape back into the casserole dish, re-cover and bake another 1 ½ hours, stirring halfway through.
- Remove the lid and bake a further 30-40 minutes, stirring every 15-20 minutes, until very thick.
- Cool to room temperature (or cover and chill until needed - up to 1 week).
- When ready to use, add cinnamon, sugar, cornstarch, tapioca starch and egg yolk, mixing well with a spatula. Set aside while preparing pastry.
- For Crust:.
- Cream the cream cheese, shortening, and sugar until fluffy.
- Add vanilla and beat at medium speed until well blended.
- Beat in flours, flax seed, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon until well blended, adding milk as necessary to for a stiff but cohesive dough.
- Shape into a disc and wrap tightly in plastic. Chill at least 2 hours, until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 400°.
- Between sheets of waxed paper, roll the dough into an approximately 15" round.
- Flip into a greased 11" tart pan with a removable bottom set on a baking sheet, pressing into the sides. Trim the edges.
- Dock dough with a fork, then line the shell with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake for 25 minutes, then remove the weights and foil and bake for about 5 minutes, or until the base of the shell is golden.
- Transfer to a rack and cool 30 minutes. Leave oven on.
- To Bake:.
- Spread the apple-pumpkin mixture into the tart shell.
- Starting at the outside, overlap the apple slices in concentric circles over the pumpkin filling. Sprinkle with the raw sugar.
- Bake for about 1 hour, or until the apples are tender and golden and the custard is set in the centre.
Tips:
- To ensure the perfect balance of flavors, use a tart apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
- Feel free to use store-bought pie crust to save time, but homemade crust always adds an extra touch of deliciousness.
- If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice.
- To prevent the filling from bubbling over, place a baking sheet underneath the tart pan before baking.
- Let the tart cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the filling set and prevent it from becoming runny.

With its delightful combination of sweet pumpkin, tart apples, and warm spices, this pumpkin apple tart is a true fall classic. Perfect for Thanksgiving or any other special occasion, this dessert is sure to impress your guests. Whether you use a homemade or store-bought crust, the key to a successful tart is to use fresh, high-quality ingredients and to bake it until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
