RECIPE: raspberries and cream tart

This delicious raspberry and cream tart from Dairy Australia takes only 20 minutes to make and only requires a few simple recipes:

Ingredients

2 sheets of shortcrust pastry

125g cream cheese, cut into 18 cubes, softened

3/4 cup raspberry jam

3/4 cup slivered almonds

icing sugar, for dusting

Method

Using a 7cm diameter round cutter, cut 18 rounds from the pastry sheets. Press pastry into a greased patty pan or mini tart tins.

Squash 1 square of cream cheese in each tart case and spoon over a teaspoonful of jam, sprinkle with almonds.

Bake at 180°C for 10-12 minutes until pastry and almonds are golden. Cool for at least 15 minutes before dusting with icing sugar and serving warm or at room temperature.

Cooking tip: Tarts are best served the day they are made, but can be kept refrigerated for 2 days.
