Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup splenda granular
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbsp soft margarine, melted (or butter , i probably use more)
  • 6 tbsp any flavour low sugar jam or 6 tbsp mincemeat or 6 tbsp cranberry sauce or 6 tbsp lingonberry sauce or 6 tbsp of any selection of sliced fresh fruit

Directions:

  1. For filling, beat cream cheese and Splenda until smooth.
  2. Add eggs, sour cream, and vanilla, and beat well. I usually prepare the filling in the food processor. Set aside.
  3. For crust, place 1 sheet of phyllo on a work surface (keep remainder covered with a damp tea towel to prevent drying out). Brush with melted margarine (or butter). Place a second sheet on top. Cut into 12 squares. Place 1 square in each greased muffin cup, leaving the corners of the square extending up into points. Repeat with remaining 2 sheets of phyllo, placing this next square on top of the phyllo lined muffin cups, but giving it a 1/4 turn, so the points fit between the existing ones (completed pastry should look like a tulip).
  4. Divide cheese mixture between tart shells. If using optional filling drop 1/2 TBSP of any topping except fresh fruit, in center of each tart.
  5. Bake at 375°F for 20 minutes, or until pastry is golden and filling is set.
  6. Cool in muffin tin on a rack until only warm, then remove from tin to rack to finish cooling.
  7. Store in the refrigerator.
  8. Garnish with fresh fruit (and a sprinkle of powdered sugar) if using that option.
