Name: Prize Winning Festive Phyllo Tarts
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: FILLING; 1 (8 ounce) package light cream cheese, softened; 1/2 cup Splenda granular; 2 eggs; 1/2 cup light sour cream; 1 teaspoon vanilla; CRUST; 4 sheets phyllo pastry, thawed in the package, in the fridge; 2 tablespoons soft margarine, melted (or butter, I probably use more); OPTIONAL TOPPINGS; 6 6 tablespoons lingonberry sauce or 6 tablespoons of any selection of sliced fresh fruit

Servings: persons

FILLING
1 (8 ounce) package light cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup Splenda granular
2 eggs
1/2 cup light sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
CRUST
4 sheets phyllo pastry, thawed in the package, in the fridge
2 tablespoons soft margarine, melted (or butter, I probably use more)
OPTIONAL TOPPINGS
6 6 tablespoons lingonberry sauce or 6 tablespoons of any selection of sliced fresh fruit

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 375u00b0F 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.
