5 Ingredient Strawberries and Cream Tartlets

Jul 1, 2016 · 13 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

When you’re looking for a quick summery dessert and don’t feel like using your oven, look no further than these 5-ingredient strawberries and cream tartlets. They’re adorable and conjure up memories of childhood and summertime. Just imagine coming inside after a day of being out in the hot sun and enjoying one of these cold mini desserts AND they’re a recipe from my upcoming cookbook, Fast & Easy Five Ingredient Recipes: A Cookbook for Busy People. 

The best 5 ingredient strawberries and cream tartlets you can eat this image

These strawberry tartlets are creamy, fruity and totally crave worthy, and are absolutely perfect for strawberry season, 4th of July, they’re also this week’s Five Ingredient Friday recipe.

The most delicious 5 ingredient strawberries and cream tartlets dessert you'll ever taste

As promised when I shared the cookbook pre-order bonus, each Five-Ingredient Friday leading up to the cookbook launch I would be sharing something cookbook related. These 5-ingredient strawberries and cream tartlets are a recipe from the cookbook, and an absolute summer staple. They’re amazing, super easy to put together and are great for a no-bake dessert. I’ve always loved strawberries desserts – remember when I told you in this 5-ingredient pear crumble post how, as a baby, I wouldn’t eat apples, but I did like other fruits? Well, strawberries are one of the other fruits I was totally in love with. Since I was little I loved strawberry and cream desserts, and even my wedding cake was strawberry and cream! Needless to say, I’m super excited to be sharing this recipe with you today.
The freshest strawberries from the farmers market to make strawberries and cream tartlets

Also, these are a great recipe to make because it’s strawberry season! A few weeks ago I went to the farmers market and the strawberries were kind of spaced out (photo above left), then this past weekend I went and they were just in total abundance, strawberries everywhere (top right photo), so amazing!
A recipe from my upcoming cookbook, Fast & Easy Five Ingredient Recipes: A Cookbook for Busy People.

I also have to share that this week has been an absolutely incredible one. I got to hold my cookbook in my hands for the very first time – it was surreal.
The best cookbook you need now is Fast and Easy Five Ingredient Recipes CookbookI found out that Costco picked up my cookbook!!! And I found out that the cookbook in its second printing and it hasn’t even come out yet!! I am in speechless and so grateful!! Advance copies were sent out to media and bloggers, and Gina of the truly amazing blog SkinnyTaste blew me away with her beautiful post of 5-ingredient chocolate cheesecake cups (another recipe from the cookbook), I’m absolutely honored and speechless.

Here’s a little sneak peek inside the #sweetphicookbook

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 6 tartlets

Ingredients

  • 6 mini graham cracker piecrusts
  • 1/2 pint strawberries hulled and sliced (1/2 to 3/4 cup sliced)
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 8 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese softened (see note)
  • 8 ounces cool whipped topping at room temperature (see note)

Instructions

  • Set mini piecrusts on a plate or baking sheet.
  • Place the sliced strawberries in a bowl and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the sugar, stir once or twice until the strawberries are coated, and then set aside.
  • In a large bowl, with a hand (or stand) mixer, beat the cream cheese and remaining 1/3 cup of sugar until smooth and creamy, then add the cool whipped topping and beat until combined. The mixture will be thick.
  • With a spatula, scoop a sixth of the filling and press it into one of the mini piecrusts. Repeat until all of the mini pies are filled. Top each filled tartlet with a few strawberries and refrigerate on their plate or baking sheet to set, about 1 hour or overnight, then store them in the refrigerator. (Alternatively you can store them in the freezer and serve frozen as ice-cream tartlets.)

Notes

To get the cream cheese and cool whipped topping to room temperature, I simply put them out on the counter 30 minutes to an hour before making this recipe.

This meatball Caesar pizza is a fun pizza topping This meatball Caesar pizza is a fun pizza topping combo that combines best of both worlds: meatballs and tangy Caesar dressing 🤩
TIP: I used Costco frozen meatballs which have a little heat to them. If your meatballs are on the plainer side, I’d recommend adding a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes!
