Memorial day tart

 

 Okay so mine is a little sweeter than other peoples because I used cream cheese icing. You can easily change the icing to whip cream, vanilla pudding, etc..

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (you could also do a sugar cookie dough or crescent rolls)
  •  blueberries, washed
  •  strawberries, washed & quartered
  • Bananas (optional. I always find that the banana's brown before i can serve it- or i have to add a lemon juice to it and it's just not as good.)

  • Icing:

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup  shortening
  • 3oz cream cheese
  • 2 cups  powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 TBL milk
  • (Can substitute all this for just whip cream or whip cream and some powder sugar, a little vanilla)

Directions:

I used only one of the two sheets of the puff pastry. put my puff pastry directly onto a parchment papered cookie sheet. It's already a rectangle. However you might have to smush together seams Bake at 400 degrees until browned

After it has cooled, add on your icing and fruit into the shape of an American flag..Or any flag...OR just jumble the fruit on! Who cares? it tastes good :)
