Independence Day Treat

Happy Independence Day everyone! Since I'm not working anymore and have more time, I decided to make a 4th of July treat. I probably spent an hour just looking at recipes on-line and finally decided to make this:

Strawberry Cream Cheese Tart


They turned out delicious! Here's the recipe if anyone is interested:

Ingredients
· 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
· 1 cup sugar
· 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
· 2 eggs
· 12 vanilla wafers
· 1 (21-ounce) can strawberry filling, or other pie filling

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a paper cupcake liner in each cup of a muffin pan.
Beat cream cheese with a handheld electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar and vanilla, beating well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Place a vanilla wafer, flat side down, in each muffin cup. Spoon cream cheese mixture over wafers. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow tarts to cool completely. Serve with strawberry filling on top, or pie filling of your choice.
