1
Make the Pimento Cheese Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, pimentos, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy. Set aside.
2
Prepare the Tarts
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out pastry dough and cut into circles to fit in a mini tart pan. Press the dough into the tart pan and prick the bottoms with a fork.
3
Bake the Tarts
Bake the tart shells in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
4
Assemble the Tarts
Fill each cooled tart shell with a generous spoonful of pimento cheese filling. Top with bacon jam, roasted tomatoes, and gherkins. Garnish with fresh arugula.
5
Serve
Serve the pimento cheese tarts immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
