Chocolate Cherry Tarts

Be careful, these little desserts can become addictive! A Cinnamon Hearts recipe and a favorite of our readers since its publication in 1998. They make a wonderful treat to end a special Valentine dinner!

  • 2 (8 oz) pkg Neufchatel (light) cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 24 chocolate wafers, Keebler® 30% reduced-fat
  • 1 (21 oz) can light cherry pie filling

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line muffin tins with foil & paper cupcake liners (find the next to the regular muffin paper liners).

Beat cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth.

Place a chocolate wafer in the bottom of each muffin cup; top with a dollop of cheese mixture. Bake 18 to 20 minutes; remove from tins and let cool. Top with cherry pie filling. Chill overnight before serving. Makes 24 Tarts.

Kitchen Hint: a 9- x 13- x 2-inch cake pan with lid is the perfect container for refrigerating the tarts.
