    List of Ingredients

    1 pkg (3oz) cream cheese, softened

    beat butter and cream cheese in medium bowl; add flour and sugar, beating until well blended. Cover; refrigerate about one hour or until dough is firm. Shape dough into 1-inch balls; press each ball of dough into cups of ungreased Mini-muffin pan. (I use a tart shaper dipped in flour) Press dough to form tart shell.
