"Hi, I'm Jennifer Cail on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to show you how to make a variety of tiny tarts. To make our tiny holiday tarts first I'm going to discuss the ingredients that you will need for them. For the tartlet shell that we are going to be making we only need three ingredients; some flour, butter and cream cheese. I'm also going to discuss two different fillings that you can make for the tarts but you can certainly make dozens more depending on what you like and various ideas. So for cranberry filling we are going to need cranberries, one egg, some walnuts and then brown sugar. Besides the cranberry I'm going to show you how to make chocolate filling, so we are going to need chocolate chips, an egg, granulated white sugar and also some nuts. You can use walnuts, peanuts whatever types of nuts that you like but this is going to be for the brownie filling and then the cranberry filling and last but not least we'll have our crust."
