Aili's Cruise Fruit Tarts
Crust:
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 stick butter, chilled and cut into pieces
3 Tbs. ice water
In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, and salt. Drop in butter pieces. Work butter into the flour with fingers a fork, or a pastry cutter until it resembles corn meal with stray pea-sized pieces of butter in it. Pour 2 Tbs. water over mixture and stir until it comes together. (Add another Tbs of water if it remains too dry to pull into a dough.)
Cool pastries.
Filling:
1 cup whipping cream
1 " piece of cream cheese (I think that might be 4 oz?)
2 Tbs. sugar
Whip the cream and then beat the sugar and cream cheese into it.
Aili topped them each with sliced strawberries, banana, blackberries, and frozen blueberries, sprinkled the tops with crushed lemon heads, and drizzled them with a mix of 3 spoonfuls of honey and 2 tsp lemon juice.
