Pepper Jelly Tarts

COOK TIME: 10 Min

Whether you're an old fan or a first-time taster of pepper jelly, you're gonna unlock incredibly unique flavor with just one bite of these!

What You'll Need

1 (5-ounce) jar processed cheese spread
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons jalapeño pepper jelly

What to Do

Preheat the oven to 375 degree F. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cheese spread, butter, flour, and water; mix well.
Roll the dough between 2 sheets of waxed paper to a 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter and place 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper jelly in the center of each dough circle.
Fold the dough over to form half circles and pinch to seal the edges. Place on a large baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden.
Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Place in an airtight container until ready to serve.

Makes about 1 1/2 dozen.

Notes

If the dough becomes too soft to work with, freeze it for a few minutes till it firms up again.

It appears to me that in this recipe, the dough is made from the cheese, butter, flour and water in Step #1.

You are so correct! I am going to put a half teaspoon of cream cheese with the pepper jelly and it will be kinda like a jalepena popper.

The Hot Pepper Jelly Tarts says roll dough between 2 pieces of waxed paper. Is that puffed pastry dough as in the Brie Apricot Tarts?? Doesn't say, so I am assuming.
