Strawberry Jam and Mini Peanut Butter Cup Tarts


Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup salted butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup strawberry jam, seedless, or mini peanut butter cups


Directions:
1. Heat your oven to 350F and have ready an ungreased mini-muffin or mini-tart pan.
2. In the bowl of a food processor combine the flour, sugar, milk, vanilla, and butter.  Pulse until the mixture forms a ball.
3. Turn the dough out into a floured board and form into a log.  Divide the log in half and divide each half into 12 pieces.
4.  Place a ball of dough in the cup of a mini-muffin pan and, using your thumb, (or something that is able to create a hole in the middle of the dough for filling), press down until the dough reaches the top if the cup.
5. Spoon about one teaspoon of jam into each tart shell, making sure the tart shells are not too full.  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tarts are golden brown and the jam is bubbling.  Cool in the pan for 30 minutes before removing to a rack to cool the rest of the way.
6.  Repeat with the second roll of dough.

NOTE* To make the ones with peanut butter cups in them, just replace the jam with mini peanut butter cups.
