STEPS
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Prepare the dough: Unroll the Jus-Rol Puff Pastry dough on the included parchment paper. Cut the dough into 8 equal rectangles and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Add the pears: Arrange the thinly sliced pears over the cream cheese layer on each rectangle, slightly overlapping the slices. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the pears.
-
Bake: Place the tarts in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
