Cheesecake Tarts

RecipesPIES TARTS & BARSJul 5Written By Malu Bonifacio

Cheesecake Tarts are tarts with cream cheese filling. I often use sweetened frozen tarts as it saves me time to make the pastry. This allows me to simply prepare the filling.

I was excited when I took it out of the oven as it came out immaculately white. For the topping, I sprinkled some sugar. Since I don't have a torch, I use the oven to broil. Make sure to monitor closely as the sugar burns fast.
