1. Separate the pastry dough from the waxy lining. Using parchment paper, cut a 3″ wide strip and bring the ends together to create a short cylinder. Staple the ends together to keep it intact. Repeat for each intended tart.
2. Use that cylinder as a cookie cutter to cut circles from the pastry dough (usually 6 circles).
3. Sauté sliced onions and sugar. Before completely sautéed add apple and continue until both are slightly soft
4. Stand cylinder on end and fill halfway with sautéed mixture. Top with a tablespoon of cream cheese, spread evenly.
5. Top with one of the circular cuts of pastry dough.
6. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes.
7. Allow to cool slightly then use a spatula to transfer to plate. Do not remove the waxy wrapper until served.
