CHERRY BLOSSOM CHEESE TARTS 
A tart is like a small pie and should not be confused with any pastry. These cream cheese filled tarts are reminiscent of the style of cherry-topped New York deli-style cheesecakes, but in a diminutive form.

18 vanilla wafers
16 oz. cream cheese
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
1 can cherry pie filling

Beat cheese, sugar, eggs and vanilla together for about 5 minutes at medium speed. Place paper liners in paper-lined cupcake pans and put 1 wafer into the bottom of each cup.

Fill mixture to about 1/2-inch from the top of liner.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes at 375°F.

When cool, spoon cherry mixture on top and place in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Pineapple or blueberry pie filling can be substituted for the cherry filling.
