Give Me A Kiss Tarts

I have a fantastic mini tart recipe to share with you today!

I call them Give Me A Kiss Tarts! As the name implies, the

tarts do have a Kiss inside - a Hershey's Kiss which makes 

them perfect for Valentine's Day!

These tarts are super simple and only require 2 packs of Mini Fillo Shells,

a bag of Hershey's Kisses, a can of good Cherry Pie Filling and some

whipped cream!

First you put one Hershey's Kiss in each Fillo Shell. You 

may need to press the kiss down into the shell a little to

flatten the base.

Bake for 5 minutes. When you remove the tarts from

the oven, press the chocolate kiss down with the back 

of a spoon.

Then spoon one cherry with a little sauce on top of the 

chocolate kiss.

Top that with some pink whipped cream and some

chocolate curls or sprinkles and you're ready to serve!!

BLACK FOREST TARTS

Adapted from Family Circle

Ingredients:

2 Packages mini fillo pastry shells (15 per package)

31 foil wrapped milk chocolate kisses

1 can cherry pie filling

1 can (7oz) refrigerated whipped topping 

or

1 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered

sugar (or to taste), pink food color

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place mini fillo shells

on a baking sheet. Unwrap 30 chocolate kisses,

place one in each cup.

Bake 5 minutes. Remove from oven. With the

back of a spoon, gently press down the point 

of the kiss into each cup.

Open the can of pie filling. With a small spoon,

scoop out one cherry with a little sauce and place

in fillo cup on top of the chocolate kiss.

(Do not refrigerate or the chocolate kiss will

harden)

Immediately before serving, top each mini

cup with whipped topping - or make homemade

whipped cream by beating together the 1 cup

heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar and the

pink food coloring in a chilled bowl with chilled

beaters until stiff. Then place in a piping bag

fitted with a tip of choice (I used a Wilton 1M)

and pipe onto tarts.  Top with chocolate curls,

chocolate sprinkles, or grate the last chocolate 

kiss over the whipped cream. 

What's not to love about chocolate and cherries and

whipped cream?!

These tarts are so addictive!! 

Betcha can't stop at one!!
