Time 45m

Yield 12 tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pastry for a 9 inch pie shell
6 tablespoons blue cheese, crumbled (I like the Maytag Blue)
2 whole eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup milk
4 ounces milk cheese, grated (Monterey Jack or brick are good)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Roll out pastry on floured board to form a 12 inch circle.
  • Using a 3 inch cutter, cut rounds of dough.
  • By reworking dough scraps, there should be 12 rounds.
  • Grease the back of a 12-cup muffin pan.
  • Fit rounds onto pan and part way up sides of cup – the pastry goes on the OUTSIDE of the cup, not the inside, pressing lightly to seal.
  • Bake for 10 minutes.
  • If pastry has puffed up, press down lightly.
  • Set aside to cool Reduce oven temperature to 350F.
  • Remove pastry shells from backs of muffins pan and place upright on cookie sheet.
  • Place ½ T of blue cheese in bottom of each shell.
  • Combine eggs, cream, milk, grated cheese, nutmeg and salt.
  • Divide mixture among shells, pouring almost to the top.
  • Don’t overfill as cheese mixture will rise during baking.
  • There may be a bit of leftover filling.
  • Place filled shells in oven and bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned and firm.
  • Serve hot or tepid.

These are the best blue cheese tartlets I've ever had. The crust is flaky and the filling is creamy and flavorful.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of blue cheese. But I'm so glad I did! The blue cheese flavor was perfectly balanced with the other ingredients, and the tartlets were absolutely delicious.
