Servings 16 Tarts

Ingredients
  

  • 2 refrigerated pie dough crusts
  • 2 tablespoons flour more if needed
  • 1-2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Lightly flour a flat surface and unroll both pie dough crusts. Cut out 16 flowers from the
  • dough using a 4-inch flower-shaped cookie cutter. Re-roll the scraps as needed.
  • Gently press 12 flowers into the mini muffin tin, making sure to space them out (you will
  • need to do 2 batches to get 16 flower cups). Allow the petals of the pie dough to drape
  • over the edges of the muffin tin.
  • Put the flower cups in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they become golden brown.
  • Allow the flower cups to cool and then sprinkle them with 1-2 tablespoons of powdered
  • sugar.
  • Using a hand mixer or stand mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the whipping cream on
  • a medium-high speed until it begins to thicken, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a separate
  • bowl and set aside.
  • Beat the cream cheese in the mixing bowl using a paddle attachment. Then add in the
  • strawberry jam, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract and combine. Fold in
  • the whipped cream gently with a baking spatula.
  • Spoon the strawberry filling into a large plastic freezer bag and snip the edge for easy
  • distribution into the flower cups. Fill each flower cup until you hit the petal line.
  • Refrigerate the tarts for at least 30 minutes. Serve cold and enjoy!
