Time 38m

Yield 24 tarts, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces phyllo dough, thawed
6 tablespoons butter, melted
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
8 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup Splenda brown sugar blend
1/4 cup sugar-free strawberry jelly
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3 teaspoons lemon juice (I used fresh squeezed)
1 cup frozen raspberries (thawed)
1 cup frozen blueberries (thawed)
1 (14 ounce) can whipped topping (optional for garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Lay unrolled stack of phyllo sheets on flat surface, cover with large piece of saran wrap or parchment paper & then cover with damp kitchen towel.
  • Remove one phyllo sheet to a flat surface & brush with melted butter. Remove second sheet, lay over the first sheet & brush with butter. Repeat til you have 5 sheets total. (Re-cover the rest of the sheets each time to keep from drying out, but make sure to not get them wet with the damp towel).
  • Using knife or pizza cutter, cut stack of buttered sheets into 6 squares. Lay one stack of squares into a muffin cup, gently pushing down in the middle & around the sides. Repeat with remainder of squares.
  • Repeat steps 3 & 4 until all of the phyllo sheets have been used.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. Remove from oven & allow to cool in pans.
  • In mixer fitted with wire whip attachment, combine mascarpone cheese, cream cheese, Splenda, strawberry jelly, powdered sugar & lemon juice til smooth.
  • Fold in raspberries & blueberries.
  • When phyllo shells are cool, spoon in the filling (I used a small cookie scoop) & top with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
  • Store in refrigerator.
