Mini Raspberry Tarts

I’m a sucker for tarts and raspberries. I love the Key Lime and Berry tarts from Kneaders, but honestly, I’ve never had many other kinds. Thus, the mini raspberry tart had to be born. I had been DYING to make one so, of course, I scoured Pinterest to find a recipe. Alas, I came up with nothing substantial, so I was disappointed and on my own. Why are raspberry desserts so hard to come by?

These mini raspberry tarts took a few tries to get just right – I was one of the happy taste testers – and I’m pleased with the end result. It was worth it. Light, fluffy, tart-tastic.

Plus! I was super excited to try out Xylitol Sweetener. What’s that you say? It’s a natural sweetener that is super easy to use and cook with because it’s a 1:1 ratio. Are you ready for this? I’m not.

*40% calorie savings when compared to sugar
*all natural
*no aftertaste

Studies show that consuming products rich in xylitol, like XyloBurst products, may reduce the occurrence of tooth decay and improve oral health as well – So its great for your kiddos too! Are you sold yet? It’s awesome. On a total side note, they have a ton of other rad products too – I’m a huge fan of the gum and mints. Perfect for an after dinner sweet!
