Easy Raspberry White Chocolate Tarts. Frozen puff pastry & a simple white chocolate whipped cream filling make these luscious tarts a cinch to put together.
My love of anything raspberry is demonstrated yet again in this pretty fuss-free recipe. It is not at all difficult at all to make but looks pretty impressive just the same.
This simple recipe could easily make an impression at any dinner party. Your guests will certainly think you went to fsr more trouble than you actually did.
Isn’t that the kind of recipe that everyone loves? I know I do.
To start with, the recipe uses frozen puff pastry for the tart shells. What could be easier than that?
The frozen puff pastry used in this recipe comes pre-rolled in parchment paper. Just thaw and use to line the muffin tins.
Then, it uses a very straight-forward shortcut method for making a simple white chocolate mousse for the filling. The raspberry sauce/compote fro the top is also super easy and fuss free.
We served them at dinner a couple of days ago to some very appreciative guests. They proved the point that impressive does not need to be difficult or time consuming.

Easy Raspberry White Chocolate Tarts
Easy Raspberry White Chocolate Tarts. Frozen puff pastry & a simple white chocolate whipped cream filling make these luscious tarts a cinch to put together.
Ingredients
- 1 pound puff pastry, frozen package with 2 sheets
For the Raspberry Compote
- 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup cold water
- 1 ½ tsp corn starch
For the White Chocolate Mousse filling
- 1/4 cup + 1 1/2 cups whipping cream
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp powdered sugar.
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Roll each sheet into about a 8x12 inch rectangle. Cut each sheet into 6 pieces and fit the pastry into 12 well greased muffin tins. Poke several holes in the bottom and sides of the pastry in the muffin tins with a fork to prevent too much puffing of the pastry as it bakes. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until the shells turn a nice golden brown. Set aside on a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the raspberry compote
- Bring the raspberries and sugar to a gentle boil. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and add to the boiling raspberries stirring constantly until thickened. Simmer for an additional minute, remove from heat and allow the compote to cool to room temperature.
To make the white chocolate mousse filling
- Heat the1/4 cup whipping cream in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Slowly melt in the white chocolate until smooth, remove from the heat and transfer to a separate bowl to cool to almost room temperature.
- Whip the 1 1/2 cups whipping cream, 3 tbsp powdered sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract to firm peaks.
- Fold the melted chocolate into the whipping cream in 3 portions. Chill well before piping or spooning the filling into the shells and topping with the raspberry compote to serve.

Barry,
Is this a CDN product as I could not find it in my mega US grocery store today. Thanks.

It's just a little envelope of powder that you add to whipped cream to keep it fron deflating/falling. You can usually find it in the dessert/baking section of your supermarket.

Sounds great. Would love to make this soon. Question - what is whipped cream stabilizer? Never heard of it.
