Ingredients

  • 28 mini phyllo shells
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips divided
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream plus 2 Tbsp
  • 2 8 oz packages cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup frozen mojito mixer concentrate thawed
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp grated lime zest plus add'l for garnishing
  • 2 tsp rum extract
  • fresh mint

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the shells on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 3-5 minutes per the instructions on the package, then set aside to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, in a small microwave safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips and 1 Tbsp of heavy cream in the microwave. Melt in 20 second increments stopping to stir each time. Repeat this process until the chocolate is completely smooth. Set aside.
  • To prepare the filling: In a medium mixing bowl, whip together cream cheese,  mojito concentrate, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 2 tsp of rum flavoring. (May use Rum in place of extract, if preferred) 
  • Using a hand mixer, whip together for 2-3 minutes until fully combined and the mixture is creamy and fluffy. Whip in white chocolate and lime zest until combined. Chill for 30 minutes.
  • To prepare the white chocolate drizzle: Just before assembling, melt remaining 1/2 cup of white chocolate with 1 Tbsp of heavy cream in the microwave. Melt in 20 second increments stopping to stir each time. Repeat this process until the chocolate is smooth. Add additional cream 1 tsp at a time, if needed to thin.
  • Divide chilled filling evenly between the shells. You can do this with a teaspoon, or a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. 
  • Drizzle each tart with melted white chocolate, and garnish with fresh lime zest and a sprig of mint. Keep chilled until serving.
