Valentine's Sweet Treat!

Cherry "Tarts"

Ingredients

2 tubes of crescent rounds               1 can of cherry pie filling

 

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
 
2. Spray the inside of 2 muffin pans.  I split the two tubes of rolls between two pans for more even baking.
 

3. Pull apart the crescent rounds and drop them into the pan.
 

4.Allow your child to smush the roll down and up the sides of the pan (cup) to make a tart shell.  You may have to press one more time before putting them into the oven.
 

5. Bake for 10 minutes.  When you take them out you'll have to press the centers back down.  Be careful, they're HOT!  Yeah...I burned myself a few times.
 

6. Remove them from the pan and allow them to cool for a minute.  They cool pretty quickly.

 7. Scoop some of the cherry filling into each tart shell.

 

There's no need to let them set up.  The tarts can be enjoyed immediately.  Natalie had a blast making these today.  She did them all by herself!  It was one of her school projects for Valentine's Day.  

*We did them in two batches so the oven wasn't over crowded.
