1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla or almond extract
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup fresh strawberries, halved
1 cup fresh raspberries (optional)
Press cookie dough onto an ungreased pizza pan or for a thicker crust use a pie pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes (until a golden brown.) Let cool.
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, & vanilla until smooth. Spread over cooled crust. In center of tart, arrange berries in the shape of a star. Add a berry border. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Yields: 16 servings.
Happy 4th! Michele
SIX servings? How big are those servings?! I used a bigger pizza pan {all I have!} and it made enough to feed an army! It was only a 14 inch, and I didn't press it out all the way so that it would still be thick and soft. I would say there's at LEAST 12 servings there, especially since it's so rich... but perhaps those serving suggestions were made by those who eat more than their fair share {me me me me me!} and enjoy delicious treats! :O) And it looks BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteOops! Typo - it's supposed to say 16. Thanks for catching that Tiff! (If you do it in a pie pan it'll probably be closer to 12.)
