Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh rhubarb
1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box
1/2 cup Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy vanilla frosting
1/4 teaspoon Betty Crocker™ pink gel food color
1/4 teaspoon Betty Crocker™ purple gel food color

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
  • In 1-quart saucepan, place butter, rhubarb, berries and sugar. Simmer over medium heat about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is softened. With whisk, quickly stir in cornstarch. Cook until mixture is thickened. Remove from heat; set aside.
  • On large cutting board, unroll pie crusts. Using pizza cutter, cut each pie crust into 1 large square. Cut each large square into 4 smaller squares.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup berry-rhubarb mixture onto center of 4 crust squares. Gently place second crust square on top of each. With fork, press edges to seal and form tart. Place tarts on cookie sheet.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
  • Into 1 small resealable food-storage plastic bag, place 1/4 cup frosting; place remaining 1/4 cup frosting in another bag. Add pink gel food color to one bag; add purple gel food color to other bag.
  • Microwave bags on High about 10 seconds or until frosting is melted. Knead each bag to spread color throughout frosting. Cut off tiny bottom corner from each bag; drizzle frosting over warm hand tarts.
