Did you know February is National Cherry Month? True story! And since red is my favorite color and cherry pie is my absolute favorite dessert, it is only natural that I would have to make something to celebrate! How do mini cherry tarts with cream cheese crust sounds? Divine, right?! The flaky, buttery crust is the perfect texture thanks to the addition of cream cheese and these mini tarts get two thumbs up for easy thanks to pre-made cherry pie filling!

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
6 oz. cream cheese, softened (I used light)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

Cream the butter, cream cheese and salt together. Mix in the flour. Allow crust dough to chill for at least 30 minutes. Roll about a 1 inch ball of dough, place in the well of a mini muffin/cupcake pan...
