Ingredients
- 1 premade pie crust package I used Trader Joe's
- 8 ounce package cream cheese softened
- ½ cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese room temperature
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 1 cup fresh cranberries chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons Chopped Pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425.
- Note this makes one 9" tart or five 5" tarts (I made smaller tarts)
- Prepare pie crust as directed on package for one-crust baked shell using a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Trim excess pie crust even with top of pan. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until light brown. Cool 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
- In a medium combine cream cheese and gorgonzola cheese; beat with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in milk and egg until well mixed. Gently stir in cranberries and green onions. Spread mixture in baked tart shell; sprinkle with pecans.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until filling is set. Let stand 30 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges. Store covered in refrigerator.
