Number Of Ingredients 9

1 prepared piecrust (such as Pillsbury)
2 (4 ounce) logs cinnamon-cranberry goat cheese
6 tablespoons plus 1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
1 cup cranberry juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

Heat oven to 425°F. Fit piecrust into a 9- or 9-1/2-inch removable-bottom tart pan. Line with a double layer of nonstick foil, pressing against side of crust. Bake at 425°F for 18 minutes. Remove crust from oven, reduce heat to 375°F and remove foil. Meanwhile, blend goat cheese, 6 tablespoons of the sugar, the egg and milk in a bowl. Pour into crust. Bake at 375°F for 20 minutes or until set. While cheese layer bakes, make topping. Combine remaining 1 cup sugar, the cranberries, cranberry juice, lemon zest and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and pour over baked goat cheese layer. Cool until set. Tip: For a pretty garnish, reserve 1/3 cup raw cranberries. Spritz with nonstick cooking spray and roll in sugar.
