CHEESY CRAB TARTS



Cheesy Crab Tarts image

I love to entertain and always looking for yummy appetizers. These wonderful little tarts are compliments of Paula Deen. I prepared them ahead of time and warmed them in the oven before my guests arrived. Besides their scrumptious taste and slight kick they make a beautiful presentation. I also substituted the lump crab with imitation crab.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 40m

Yield 10 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
4 -6 tablespoons ice cold water
2/3 cup heavy cream
2 eggs
8 ounces cooked drained crabmeat
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 small shallot, grated
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • For the crust: Combine the flour and salt in a food processor. Pulse a few times.
  • Add the cold butter and pulse until the bits of butter are the size of peas. Add the cold water 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing in between, until the dough comes together. It will be a bit lumpy.
  • Shape the dough into a rectangle, then wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the dough on a floured work surface and roll out to a 8 X 20 inch rectangle.
  • Trim the rough edges. Then cut down the center lengthwise. Cut each strip into 5 pieces creating 10- 4 inch squares of dough.
  • Fold each square and place them into muffin tins. Press the centers down to the bottom and press the folds into the sides. Prick the bottoms of the shells several times with a fork.
  • Bake the shells for 15 minutes. Then cool a little.
  • In the meantime, combine the cream and eggs in a medium sized bowl. Whisk until smooth. Then stir in the rest of the ingredients.
  • Scoop the crab mixture into each shell evenly.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes-until the tops are firm and slightly golden.
  • Serve warm!
