Ingredients
- 45 mini filo shells 3 boxes, thawed
- 4 cups pitted red cherries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup corn starch
- 1 recipe of Cream Cheese Whipped Cream
Instructions
- Add the cherries to a saucepan and cover and cook over medium heat; heat the cherries until they release their juice and come to a simmer, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir often.
- In a bowl, whisk the sugar with cornstarch until smooth; pour the mixture into the hot cherries and juice, and thoroughly combine. Reduce to low heat, bring to a simmer, and cook until the filling has thickened, about 2 minutes; remove from heat.
- Add approximately one cherry and sauce to each of the tart shells and let cool to set.
- Once cooled, prepare Cream Cheese Whipped Cream and pipe onto the top of the mini pies.
