It's well worth the effort to prepare this spectacular tart, which is best made and served the same day. A friend gave me the recipe, and it always receives rave reviews at gatherings. -Susan Terzakis, Andover, Massachusetts

Shortbread base covered with sweet creamy vanilla layer made with creamed cheese and white chocolate topped with fresh seasonal fruit. Not only is it delicious, it presents so beautifully. What's not to love. I began making it about 10 years ago and now my daughters make it for specail ocassions for their friends. Have fun and enjoy!

I had this recipe many years ago and lost it. I was glad to see I finally found it. It is a keeper, it is really worth making and is an instant crowd pleaser.

This is one of my top recipes, and I have a lot! Like another reviewer, I have made this many times over the years. The very best is exactly as written. But it's also very good to sub store bought sugar cookie dough. Also can use any variety of fruit. And the glaze can be subbed with melted apple or other clear jelly. Fruit can be arranged as pictured, or just dumped on. But the one thing I never change is the filling. It makes the tart as far as I'm concerned. Also, the crust in the recipe is better than sugar cookie crust. Another tip: it's best eaten the day it's made, altho our family somehow manages to eat all the leftovers :)

this recipe is heaven! i have been making this for years, since it first came out in a taste of home magazine. i don't take the time to arrange the fruit as pretty as in the picture, and it's still a beautiful dessert. if you want to impress, take this to your next gathering and don't change a thing, it's perfect! you will be asked for the recipe, i always am.

This was easy to do then I first thought! Very good! Although I liked the crust, I think next time I will just a sugar cookie crust. But love the Cream Cheese layer! I will use that in several other recipes that call for a cream cheese layer! This was a winner!!!

After arranging the fruit on the tart, use the pineapple juice mixture as a glaze. A small paintbrush, used only for food, works well.
