CITRUS CREAM TARTLETS

Category: Tarts

1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts, toasted
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cold butter
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup confectioners sugar
2 teaspoons each orange, lemon and lime juice
1 teaspoon each grated orange, lemon and lime peel

In a food processor, combine the nuts, sugar and flour; cover and process until blended. Add butter; blend until mixture forms coarse crumbs. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of two greased 4-inch tartlet pans with removable bottoms. Bake at 350 for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely.

In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add the confectioners sugar, citrus juices and peels; beat until blended. Spoon into crusts. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Yield: 2 servings.
