Fruit Tart
Crust:
1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 sticks butter softened and sliced
Combine in food processor until the mixture forms a ball, with your fingers press the dough into a 12 inch tart pan with a removable bottom, taking care to push the crust into the indentations in the sides. Pat until the crust is even. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes until very lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
Filling: (I double this because I like more filling)
1 - 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Beat together until smooth. Spread over the cooled crust
Topping:
Fresh strawberries sliced, kiwi slices, blueberries, raspberries
arrange over the filling as you like. I also change the fruit around as I like, I use bananas, blackberries you can use whatever you like.

Combine the limeade, cornstarch, lime juice and sugar in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until clear and thick, about 2 minutes.
