Brie Tart Recipe

Ingredients:
1 package of pie crust (2 crusts)
Apricot preserve or filling
Raspberry (or other) preserve or filling
1 small wheel Brie

Equipment:
Mini-muffin pan
2 inch biscuit cutter
Tea spoons
Small paring knife

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using the 2 inch biscuit cutter, cut out rounds from the pie crust and place in the muffin tin.

Dice the brie into small pieces and place one or two in each tart shell.

Using the teaspoons, cover the cheese with approximate 1/2 teaspoon of fruit. Be careful to not overfill the tart shell.

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is light golden. Cool for 10 minutes. Using the paring knife to loosen, remove the tarts from the pan. Serve immediately. Can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Tip: You can assemble the tarts ahead of time, and bake just before service. Tarts can also be re-warmed in a 325 degree oven for 5 to 10 minutes.
