Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • FILLING:
  • 1 package (10 to 12 ounces) white baking chips, melted and cooled
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges
  • 1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks

  • 2 kiwifruit, peeled and sliced
  • GLAZE:
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Gradually add flour and mix well.
  2. Press into an ungreased 11-in. fluted tart pan with removable bottom or 12-in. pizza pan with side. Bake at 300° for 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
  3. For filling, in a small bowl, beat melted chips and cream. Add cream cheese; beat until smooth. Spread over crust. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  4. Drain oranges and pineapple, reserving 1/2 cup fruit juices. Arrange oranges, pineapple, strawberries and kiwi over filling.
  5. For glaze, in a small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in lemon juice and reserved fruit juices until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Cool.
  6. Brush glaze over fruit. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving. If desired, sprinkle with fresh basil or mint. Refrigerate leftovers.
