1
Put the flour in a mixing bowl and stir in the salt.
2
Cut in the butter or margarine and cream cheese to form a soft dough.
3
Chill if it seems too soft to roll satisfactorily.
4
Roll out very thin.
5
Use only half the dough at a time when making small tarts or appetizer shells, for it is rich and becomes very soft in a warm kitchen.
6
Fit the dough into tart pans or flan rings.
7
Bake in a preheated 375 to 400 degree oven until a very light brown.
8
The baking time will depend on the thickness of the dough.
