Berry tartlettes

First recipe, just because I've got blackberries on the brain!  I came up with this simple recipe when a friend wanted tarts for a birthday celebration.  These tiny treats are as adorable as they are delish.  You can use any fruit that is in season, I've chosen berries today to satisfy my craving.  .

1 package refrigerated pie crust
1 c. marshmallow cream
1 c. cream cheese
1 tbsp sour cream
fresh bluberries, strawberries, and blackberries

Roll out the pie crust onto a flour dusted surface.  Using a 3 inch circular cookie cutter, cut 12 circles from the dough.  If you do not have a cookie cutter, flip a glass with smooth edges over and use the top to cut your circles.  Place the circles in the cavities of a cupcake pan and slightly ruffle the edges so that you don't get a large piece of dough off to one side.  Use a fork to make small holes in the bottom of each cup, I usually stick my fork in each cup twice to make eight tiny holes.  Bake as directed on package, I did 350 degrees for about 6 minutes or until lightly browned.  Let your cups cool.  Mix the marshmallow cream, cream cheese, and sour cream together with a hand mixer or a whisk until fluffy.  Fill each cup with mixture.  Add your freash fruit to the top of each cup. Refrigerate until ready to serve.   Voila...fresh berry tartlettes.  How easy was that?!?

We all learn from each other

Since I first began making cakes, I have relied on the internet as a source for recipes, decorating tips, and just ideas in general.  I figured that since I have been getting so much help from others that I could share a few things of my own to help anyone who's interested!  I'll have ideas, tips, recipes, decorating tricks, stories...whatever I think may help you guys out.  I love swapping ideas, so if you have something you'd like to share that you think I might need to or like to know, SHARE!  Anyway gals and guys, here goes my first attempt at blogging!
