Preparation

Preheat oven at 350 ºF (180 ºC).

Combine flour (1 1/4 cups / 310 mL) and icing sugar. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Divide dough among six 4 x 1 inch (10 x 2.5 cm) tart pans with removable bottoms*. Press dough evenly over bottom and sides of pans; place on baking sheet.

Beat Canadian Cream cheese until light. Beat in granulated sugar, 2 tbsp (30 mL) flour and egg. Gradually stir in cream. Blend in lemon rind and 1/4 cup (60 mL) lemon juice. Divide filling evenly among tart pans. Bake 20 to 25 minutes.

Cool. Arrange berries on tarts. Combine jelly and 1 tsp (5 mL) of lemon juice. Melt over low heat; stir occasionally. Spoon glaze over berries. Chill.
