this was......awesome!!! I was wondering what I was going to make some new things for halloween so I just decided to try this out today and i was amazing it did not stay in my kitchen long:)
I made these for Thanksgiving and everyone raved about them. The recipe made 96 plus I had enough left over to make a full size pie. I brought the left overs into work and everyone loved them there as well. Frosting was my favorite part!
Wow! So good! These were a big hit at my office Thanksgiving party. Next time I'll probably half the recipe though but there definitely will be a next time!
These tarts take some time to make but it's really fun to do! And delicious! I made them for a party and people thought I had bought them. I plan to make them again this fall and it will be part of my annual fall baking from now on! The frosting went fast for me by using the trick of putting it into a Ziploc bag cutting off one small corner and piping it on. This recipe does make a LOT. I did half the recipe and it made 48 tarts.
I make these at least once a month. I make them gluten free by substituting rice flour for all purpose flour.
This was a great recipe! It took me about 3 hours but it was worth it! I don't think it will take me as long next time. I used a regular muffin tin and it made exactly 3 doz which is a little more reasonable than 96. I did have a ton of extra frosting that I plan to use for cinnamon rolls. My family and friends were very impressed. I think the crust got the most complements because it was so flaky. It just melts in your mouth. Such a fantastic addition to my holiday baking list!
These do take a while to put together but they are worth it. At first I thought the flavor was a little lacking but after they sat for 24 hours in the fridge the taste came through. These are perfect to make ahead--especially for a celebration. Thank you so much for the recipe!
Wow! Wanted to try something new for the holidays & this was perfect! Very simple but yet elegant!
These are lovely and nicely impressive. Buy yourself one of those wooden tools that is large on one end and small on the other for making the little cups out of the dough. It worked very well for me. The frosting on top was delightfully different!
Made this and was underwhelmed. We are big pumpkin pie lovers and this lacked the pumpkin pie taste I was expecting. Perhaps should have realized based on the amount of cream cheese in the recipe that it s a definite cross between a cheesecake and pumpkin pie. As I m not a huge cheesecake fan it fell short for me. The pastry was really easy to work with which was nice - but it was not flaky just kind of tough for me.
