Fruit and Cream Cookie Tart
Crust
1 package Duncan Hines Golden Sugar Cookie Mix
Filling
1 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
Peach slices
Banana slices
Fresh blueberries
Grape halves
Kiwifruit slices
Fresh strawberry slices
1/2 cup apricot preserves, heated and strained
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit. For crust, prepare cookie mix
following package directions for original recipe. Spread evenly on ungreased
12" pizza pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 14 to 16 minutes or until
edges are light brown. Cool completely. For filling, combine cream cheese,
sugar, and vanilla extract in small bowl. Beat at low
speed with electric mixer until smooth. Spread on crust. Refrigerate
until chilled.
For topping, dry fruits thoroughly on paper towels. Arrange
fruit in circles on chilled crust working from outside edge toward center.
Brush fruit with warmed preserves to glaze. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
* For a little extra flavor that is very subtle,
I add just a pinch of nutmeg to the sugar cookie mix. *
Even people who aren't that crazy about fruit, should love this .
It tastes absolutely wonderful!
