Favorite Fig Bar Tarts

About the Recipe:  Loving fig bars, I always wondered how to make that fig bar texture. I had leftover pie dough and decided to place it into a 4-1/2-inch replaceable bottom tart pan.  Quite by accident, I gathered up my fig spread and chopped nuts, mixed them together, spread the filling into the mini crust; popped them into the oven for 15 minutes, and there it was, a fig bar flavored tart.  What a happy surprise!

Cook’s Note:  If you prefer a softer filling.  Blind bake the tart shell.  In a small bowl, stir chopped nuts with room temperature fig spread evenly.
Set aside.  The filling will stay soft.

Bake Mini Tart: Put on small cookie sheet; bake in 400-degree F oven for 15 minutes or until pastry is golden brown.  Remove from oven; set aside to cool.  Remove from tart shell.

To Serve:  Garnish by sprinkling lightly with confectioners’ sugar or add a puff of whipped cream. The tart can be cut into 4 small pieces.

Yield:  1 small tart

Serves: 1 to 2
