If you forget to bring cream cheese to room temperature it can be softened in the microwave for a few seconds.

For a similar dessert try these Phyllo Mini Fruit Tarts or these Red White and Blue Lemon Cheesecake Tarts.

I found this recipe for an Easy Fresh Fruit Tart from America’s Test Kitchen from Cook’s Illustrated. Last year I decided to do something lighter and easier to prepare.

And this is all fine and dandy except for the fact that everyone gorges on chocolate and jelly beans and the dessert just sits around. Coconut cake, Banana Chiffon Cake, lemon pound cake with coconut glaze, coconut cream pie, lemon bars, etc. I usually love to go all out and make a fancy shmancy dessert for Easter. With easy jam and cream cheese filling on puff pastry tart shell with a simple glaze is a perfect sweet puff pastry recipe for Easter dessert, Mother’s Day tea or anytime you’re looking for a quick, delicious easy brunch recipe.
