PHYLLO FRUIT TARTS

PISTACHIO AND WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE TARTLETS

Steps:

• In 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream just to boiling. Place white chocolate in small metal bowl. Pour hot cream over chocolate; stir until smooth. Stir in liqueur. Refrigerate about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until very cold.
• In large bowl, beat cold chocolate mixture with electric mixer on medium speed about 1 minute or until mixture begins to thicken, then on high speed until stiff peaks form. (If mixture will not beat into stiff peaks, it is not cold enough.) Continue with recipe, or store in refrigerator up to 4 hours before making tartlets.
• Just before serving, spoon mousse into gallon-size food-storage plastic bag; seal bag. Cut 1/2-inch tip off bottom corner of bag; evenly pipe mousse into each phyllo shell. Sprinkle each tartlet with nuts and garnish with 1 raspberry. Store covered in refrigerator.

SENSUOUS PHYLLO FRUIT TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place a sheet of phyllo on a flat surface such as a cutting board; spray lightly with spray and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sugar. Cover with another sheet of phyllo. Repeat three times, finishing with spray and sugar. Using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife, cut the phyllo into 3-inch squares. Place each square in a cup on a muffin tin, pressing in gently and fanning phyllo layers so corners don't overlap. Bake 7 to 10 minutes or until golden. Whip yogurt in a small bowl. Fold in Neufchâtel and vanilla (and liquor, if desired). Cover and refrigerate 10 minutes. After cups have cooled, remove them from muffin tin. Add 1 tbsp yogurt mixture to each cup. Top with fruit and serve. (You can also mix fruit directly into yogurt mixture.)

FRUIT TARTLETS IN PISTACHIO PHYLLO SHELLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F and butter four 1/2-cup muffin cups.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and cool. In a shallow baking pan toast pistachios in middle of oven, shaking pan occasionally, until golden, about 10 minutes. Cool nuts and finely chop.
• On a work surface stack phyllo sheets and cut out four 6-inch squares (for a total of 12 single-sheet squares), discarding scraps. Stack phyllo squares between 2 sheets of wax paper and cover with a kitchen towel. Line each buttered muffin cup with 1 phyllo square, pressing into bottom (don't worry if pastry rips). Fold in pastry overhang and brush inside and edges with some melted butter. In a small bowl stir together 1 tablespoon nuts and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Sprinkle bottom of each pastry shell with ‚ teaspoon mixture. Make 2 more layers of phyllo, butter, nuts, and sugar in same manner. Bake shells in middle of oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Carefully lift shells out of pan and transfer to a rack to cool slightly.
• While shells are baking, cut peach into 1/2-inch-thick wedges and halve wedges crosswise. In a bowl toss peach and berries with honey, lemon juice, and vanilla and let stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, at least 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl stir together sour cream and remaining brown sugar to taste. Just before serving, divide sour-cream mixture among shells and with a slotted spoon fill shells with fruit.
• Drizzle fruit and serving plates with some of remaining fruit juices in bowl. Sprinkle remaining nuts over tartlets.
