This fun heart-shaped version of a fruity pastry tart is perfect to share with the ones you love on Valentine’s Day.

Prep Time: 45 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour (+ 15 minutes standing time)
Makes: 16

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups M&M’s Milk Chocolate Cupid’s Mix, divided
1 pkg (14 oz) store-bought rolled pie crusts
1 egg
1 cup reduced-sugar strawberry preserves
1 cup icing sugar
2 tbsp milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4 drops pink food coloring

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Chop half of the M&M’s; set aside.
2. On lightly floured surface, roll out pastry; using 2-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out 32 hearts, rerolling scraps as needed (reserve any remaining pastry for another use).
3. Lightly beat egg with 1 tbsp water; brush over edges of 16 pastry hearts. Spread one teaspoonful of preserves onto center of each heart, leaving 1/2-inch border; sprinkle with chopped M&M’s. Cap each heart with remaining pastry hearts to cover filling. Press down edges firmly; seal with tines of fork. Pierce top of tarts with fork to make vents.
4. Transfer to parchment paper–lined baking sheet; bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until pastry is lightly golden and crisp. Transfer to rack; let cool for about 15 minutes or until pastry is no longer warm.
5. In small bowl, combine icing sugar, milk, vanilla and food coloring until smooth. Spread icing evenly over pastry tarts and garnish with remaining M&M’s.

Tip: Substitute raspberry or cherry preserves for strawberry preserves.
