How to make
-
STEP 1
Heat oven to 400ºF.
-
STEP 2
Combine flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt in bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough water with fork just until flour is moistened. Divide dough in half; shape each half into ball. Flatten slightly.
-
STEP 3
Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out 12 circles, using 4 1/2-inch round cookie cutter. Press 1 dough circle into each ungreased muffin pan cup. Bake tartlet shells 5 minutes.
-
STEP 4
Combine cream cheese, sugar and vinegar in bowl; beat at medium speed until smooth. Add chopped cheese, Parmesan and basil; beat until well mixed.
-
STEP 5
Spread 1 tablespoon cheese mixture into each hot, partially baked tartlet shell. Divide tomatoes evenly over cheese mixture. Top each with 1 teaspoon cheese mixture.
-
STEP 6
Bake 8-10 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
-
STEP 7
Combine olive oil and lemon juice in bowl; stir in salt and pepper, if desired. Add arugula; toss lightly. Top tomato tartlets with arugula.
