How to Make Cream Cheese Tarts Paula Deen
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the sugar and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Place one vanilla wafer, flat side down, in the bottom of each muffin liner.
- Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the wafers, filling each liner about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are just slightly jiggly.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely in the muffin tin. As they cool, the centers will sink slightly, creating a perfect well for the filling.
- Once completely cooled, fill each tart with a spoonful or two of your chosen pie filling or top with fresh fruit.
- Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving for optimal flavor and texture.
