Berries & Swedish Cream Tartlets Recipe image

A friend of mine brought a similar tartlet to a party we were both attending. I knew I just had to have the recipe. I modified it and now my family loves them. Since they use mixed fresh berries, they are great anytime of the year.-Maria Gruetzmacher, Stillwater, Minnesota

Number Of Ingredients 8

1-1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1 cup heavy whipping cream, divided
1/2 cup plus 4-1/2 teaspoons sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1-1/2 cups mixed fresh berries
2 packages (1.9 ounces each) frozen miniature phyllo tart shells

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup heavy cream; let stand for 1 minute. In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup sugar and remaining heavy cream over low heat until mixture reaches 160°. Remove from the heat and pour over gelatin mixture, stirring to dissolve. Stir in extracts. Cool slightly; refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in sour cream until blended. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • In a small bowl, toss berries with remaining sugar. Place 1 tablespoon cream mixture in each tart shell; top with berry mixture.
  • Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.
  • To Make Ahead: Swedish cream needs to be made the day before and refrigerated overnight.
  • Editor's Note:These mini pastries can also be served in puff pastry shells. For six servings, bake frozen puff pastry shells according to package directions and cool. Fill shells with 1/3 cup Swedish cream and 1/4 cup of berries.
