Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 c plus 10 fresh or defrosted frozen raspberries
1/4 c whipped cream cheese
1 Tbsp honey or agave
1 pkg (14 oz.) refrigerated pie crust
1 Tbsp milk or water
1-1/2 c powdered sugar

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400^. In a bowl, mash together 1/2 cup raspberries, cream cheese and honey. Unroll pie crusts, and using a large heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out 20 heart shapes. Top 10 hearts with 2 tsp. each of the raspberry mixture, leaving a 1/4 inch border. Lightly brush the borders with water. Cover with remaining hearts.
2. Using a fork, gently press down on edges to seal. With a toothpick, poke holes in each tart. Place tarts on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, place 10 remaining raspberries in a strainer set over a bowl. Press down on raspberries to release the juice. Whisk in milk and powdered sugar until icing is smooth. Spread on cooled tarts.
