Instructions

  1. 1 Combine blueberries and blueberry preserves in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and immediately reduce heat to simmer. Simmer until blueberries start to soften and pop, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool for 15 to 20 minutes (sauce will slightly thicken).
  2. 2 Beat cream in a large chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until frothy. Add vanilla extract and sugar gradually, continuing to beat on low speed until soft peaks form. Slowly increase speed to high as cream starts to firm up. Beat until stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl one time during mixing.
  3. 3 Spoon equal layers of lemon curd, followed by blueberry sauce, and whipped cream in small dessert glasses. Repeat this layering one more time, and garnish with fresh blueberries and a sprig of mint.
  4. 4 Move glasses to the fridge, and chill for 30 minutes or longer.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine butter and cream cheese for crust in a mixing bowl and mix until smooth. Gradually stir in flour and salt until well blended. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  2. 2 Remove dough from the refrigerator and place on a floured surface. Divide dough evenly into 24 pieces; shape each piece into a ball.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 24-cup mini-muffin tin with cooking spray.
  4. 4 While the oven is preheating, press dough onto the bottoms and up the sides of the greased muffin cups. Place the pan on a cookie sheet and set aside.
  5. 5 Combine milk, cream, and salt for filling in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to bubble around the edges of the pan and wisps of steam are visible, about 3 minutes.
  6. 6 Stir sugar and egg together in a bowl. Pour 1/4 of the hot milk mixture into the bowl and stir until well combined. Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan and continue to cook and stir until mixture is bubbling and has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla. Spoon about 1 tablespoon filling into each muffin cup.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Lower the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until filling is set, about 15 more minutes. Remove from the oven and set on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Remove tarts from the pan and place directly on the wire rack; let cool for 20 minutes.
  8. 8 Place 1 teaspoon raspberry preserves on top of 8 tarts, then top each with a raspberry. Make remaining tarts by topping 8 with blueberry preserves and blueberries, and the remaining 8 with pineapple preserves and banana slices. Serve at room temperature.
