Ingredients

• ½ cup nondairy whipped topping
• 1 cup good quality white chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
• ½ cup sour cream (Tofutti works)
• 30 (2 boxes) mini phyllo tart shells
• ½ cup pomegranate arils

Instructions

1. In a small pot, heat the nondairy whipped topping until it just begins to simmer.
2. Remove from heat and add white chocolate chips. Stir until chips melt and mixture is smooth. To ensure the smoothest filling, strain the mixture through a sieve.
3. Add vanilla to the white chocolate mixture and set aside to cool. Once cooled, add the sour cream and stir until combined.
4. Spoon the mixture into the tart shells, then top with the pomegranate seeds. Serve cold. Enjoy!

Note: this recipe requires good quality chocolate chips, not just white chips. Check the ingredients for cocoa butter to ensure good flavor. Muzon foods sells white chocolate chips that are non-dairy and contain cocoa butter.
