Be-My-Valentine Strawberry Tart

This recipe is from the same February 2008 Quick and Simple magazine that featured the Sweetheart Sandwich Cookies. It uses some of the Classic Sugar Cookie (See my post for February 9, 2010.) recipe as the base or crust of the tart. I made it last year for Valentines Day.

Be-My-Valentine Strawberry Tart

1/2 batch Classic Sugar Cookie Dough
8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
16 oz. fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/4 cup white chocolate chips
1/4 tsp. vegetable oil

Prepare Classic Sugar Dough recipe and refrigerate as directed. Remove 2 disks of dough from the refrigerator. Keep remaining dough in fridge or freezer for future use.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mist a pizza pan or large baking sheet with cooking spray (You could also use a tart pan.)
Break up pieces of dough and press together into a 12-inch circle.
Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden.
Let cool completely on pan.

Meanwhile:

In a bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
Add the sugar and vanilla and beat until fluffy.
Spread mixture over cookie crust.
Arrange strawberries on tart.
Microwave white chocolate chips and oil in small bowl for about 1 minute, or until chocolate can be stirred.
Drizzle over berries.
Refrigerate tart until ready to serve.
