List of Ingredients

Dough:
2 (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
2 sticks margarine, softened
2 c. flour

Blend ingredients together well. Roll into 48 small balls. Press dough into small tart pans to form a shell. Prick with fork and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Remove from pans when cool enough to handle and finish cooling on wire
rack.

Filling:
1 (14 oz.) pkg. light colored caramels
1/2 c. evaporated milk

Combine in top of double boiler and stir until melted. Pour warm mixture into cooled shells. Let cool completely before frosting.

Frosting:
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 lb. powdered sugar (approx. 2 1/4 c.)
1/4 c. butter, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Beat cream cheese and butter. Gradually add powdered sugar. Add vanilla. Beat well. Spread on top of tarts after filling has cooled (or use pastry bag).
