Goat Cheese Tarts

Source: adapted from Suite101.com

2 packages mini fillo tart shells (30 shells total)
1/4 c. glazed walnuts (such as Emerald), plus more for garnish
11 oz. semi-soft goat cheese
1 T. all-fruit strawberry jelly
1/4 c. craisins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Place glazed walnuts in the food processor filled with a metal blade.  Pulse a few times until walnuts are chopped finely.  Add goat cheese, strawberry jelly and dried cranberries to food processor and process until mixture is smooth.

Arrange fillo shells on two cookie sheets.  Spoon or pipe goat cheese spread into shells.  Garnish with additional glazed walnuts, if desired.  Bake 1-2 minutes, just until warm.

Yield:  30 tarts
