This ultra simple and light fruit dessert requires (almost!) no cooking. It combines a delightful tortilla crunch with a silky-smooth cheese filling and fresh fruit—a true summertime treat.

 

 

INGREDIENTS

For the tart shells: 

  • 2 Mejicano tortillas, 10”
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

 

For the filling:

  • ½ block (125 g) cream cheese
  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Your choice of fresh fruit (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc.)

STEPS

Prepare the tart shells: 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 °F (200 °C).
  2. Using a round cookie-cutter, cut out 6 circles from the tortillas. 
  3. Place the circles in a muffin tin, gently pressing down to shape them into small shells. 
  4. Brush each one with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. 
  5. Bake for about 10 minutes, until golden and crisp. 
  6. Allow to cool completely before filling. 

 

Prepare the filling:

  1. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, yogurt, honey, and vanilla until the texture is well blended and smooth. 
  2. Divide the mixture between the cooled tart shells. 
  3. Add a generous serving of fruit on top of each tart.
