There are many reasons that these deliciously mouth-watering cream cheese tarts are, well, the best! Cream cheese tarts are very easy to make, and take little time. They're perfect for an after-school snack, or a dessert for after dinner. Here's how to make them.

  • 3 cups of graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup of self-rising flour

    Make the dough. In a large bowl, mix together 3 cups of graham cracker crumbs and 1 cup of warm milk. Mix until it forms a sticky consistency, and add more milk as necessary. Make sure crumbs are visible. Add 1/2 cup of flour into the mixture and stir. Be careful not to over-stir. Keep mixing until the 1/2 cup of flour blends in. Moderately add the rest of the flour until you have a dough-like mixture.
  3. Form the crust. Take out the muffin tray and coat each cup with a little vegetable oil. Take a spoonful of the prepared dough and coat each cup at the bottom and around the sides with dough. Be careful not to make the crust too thick, nor too thin.
  4. Crust should look similar to this when in oven.

    Bake the crust. Let the crust bake at 400ºF/200ºC for 9 minutes, or until a little hardened. Check on the crust every 3 minutes to make sure it isn't burnt.

    Fill the tart. When the tarts are hardened, take about 1 spoonful, depending on the size of the cup, and fill each cup to the top with cream cheese. Bake at the same temperature for another 5 minutes, then take out of the oven. With a spoon or knife, spread the cream cheese evenly over the top of the tart. Also, pour about 1 teaspoon of a little milk on top of each individual tart. Let bake for one more minute.
  6. Remove tarts from muffin cups, then garnish.
