This recipe is untested.
2 dozen/ 1.5 inch sweet tart shells, baked
Assorted fresh fruit (such as strawberries, kiwi, raspberries, blueberries and mandarin oranges)
6 oz cream cheese
1/2 tsp almond extract
1/2 cup powdered sugar
12 ozs apricot jam
Tart shells may be found "ready to bake" in your grocer's freezer or "ready to fill" at many nicer bakery shops. If you are not able to find either source in your area, you can make your own. Slice fruit to size and shape to fit tart shells. In small mixing bowl, blend cream cheese, almond extract, and powdered sugar. Pipe with pastry bag and spoon mixture into bottom of the tart shells. Arrange fruit on top of cream cheese mixture. Melt the jam in small saucepan. Stir until smooth. Spoon jam over fruit. Refrigerate until set. Tarts may be made up to 12 hours in
advance.
