HONEY CREAM CHEESE STUFFED RASPBERRY BITES

Before we get to to the topic of these yummy little bites.. Have you entered the $300 Target Gift Card Giveaway yet?  If you are already a fan of The Well Floured Kitchen, you can earn a free entry!

After a cold rainy spring thus far, it’s finally warm here in the Northeast!  Just in time for Memorial Day.  And do you know what that means?  Berries, Berries and more Berries!   Bring on the healthy!  We can finally relax and enjoy these superfoods without breaking the bank.

Raspberries have that cute little pocket and it is just screaming to be filled up.   Plus it makes the snack a little more filling, since a little half pint only goes so far.   Whipping the cream cheese makes it soft and fluffy and easy to pipe into the berries.  Oh and did I mention there are walnuts in the filling- a bit of crunch and healthy to boot.

The way I remember the P in this little berry is to always use the phonetic pronunciation.  So if you come for a visit, you may be offered some raspberries.   Perhaps on a Wednesday.  That concludes my spelling tips for the day.  How were you taught?

I originally intended to post these as frozen honey cream cheese stuffed raspberry bites, but we enjoyed them so much fresh that I had to share it this way.  However on a hot summer day, don’t hesitate to pop them in the freezer for an icy cold treat.

INGREDIENTS
1/2 Pint Raspberries
For the Stuffing
4 Oz Cream Cheese, softened
1 Tablespoon Walnuts, Finely Chopped (Optional)
1 Tablespoon Honey

PREPARATION
1. Beat cream cheese and honey until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Mix in walnuts. Place mixture into a small ziploc bag and snip the corner. Pipe into raspberries.

RASPBERRY MASCARPONE TART WITH CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST

A dark chocolate cookie crust filled with whipped mascarpone and topped with raspberries.  Perfect for Valentine’s Day! Do you do anything special for Valentine’s Day?  We really don’t go like to go crazy for this “holiday”, our life is crazy enough 🙂  Although you won’t find us in a restaurant,  maybe I’ll make dessert.   Sometimes I’ll make a heart shaped breakfast for the kids, or some heart shaped cookies.  So creative I know! Stepping away from the hearts this year, but I definitely think that for Valentine’s Day chocolate is a must!  That’s why I started this tart with a dark chocolate cookie crust.  The rich chocolate flavor goes perfectly well with the smooth creamy whipped mascarpone filling.  Mascarpone cheese is a little indulgent (and challenging to spell!) but what better excuse than love to bake with the best ingredients. A few simple raspberries are the topping.  I just love the gorgeous color they gave t...

CHERRY GALETTES WITH ALMOND SOUR CREAM CRUST

Another month has passed and it’s time for Mystery Dish!  This month’s host was Sarah at The Pajama Chef.  She put together an great list of items including:  coffee, sour cream, farro, almonds, cherries, watermelon, cantaloupe, jicama, cucumber, tomatoes, flavored oils, herbs, cornmeal and hot peppers.  Since cherries are one of the few fruits I love, and they are only in season for approximately 12 seconds each year, I knew they had to be in my recipe.  Visions of pastry danced in my head. When served up a fruit pie, I tend to eat all the crust and leave the fruit on my plate.  I can truly embrace a “pie” with a higher crust to filling ratio.  How I love the galette (French),  also sometimes known as a crostata (Italian).  Regardless of the origins, who doesn’t love more buttery flaky crust? We had to use at least 3 ingredients in our mystery dish, so I decided to add some almonds and sour cream into my pie crust.   Sour cre...
