A Note Before You Start
This is a super quick, easy, & tasty hors d'oeuvre to pull together; particularly since the tartlet shells are store bought. I highly recommend letting your cream cheese and goat cheese come to room temperature. This makes is super easy to blend the two together.
Ingredients
2 packages of frozen tartlet shells. These can be found in the frozen food isle of almost any supermarket.
4 oz of goat cheese
4 oz of cream cheese
1 ripe peach peeled and finely diced
1TBSP of honey
1&1/2 tsp of fresh thyme
1/2 tsp of salt
Preparation
Step 1:
Remove the skin from the peach: fill a small sauce pan with water and bring to a boil. Mark a small X on the bottom of the peach just barely piercing the skin. Place the peach in the boiling water for 12 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon, and run under cold water. The skin will easily peel right off. Once cooled, finely dice the peach and set aside.
Step 2:
Place both (softened) cream cheese and goat cheese in a bowl and mix together with a hand held beater, or in a stand mixer. Add the honey, fresh thyme and salt, and blend all together.
Step 3:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the tartlet shells from the packaging and place on a baking tray. Bake 3-5 minutes to crisp up the shells before filling them.
Step 4:
Spoon a generous teaspoon of the cheese mixture into each tartlet and top with diced peaches. Bake for aproximatelty 10 minutes. Enjoy!
Yummy! Quick and easy crowd pleaser! ;)
