  1                    Orange
  1 1/2   c            All-purpose flour
  2       tb           Sugar
    1/2   c            Butter -- in small pieces
  2                    Egg yolks

 Loaded with flavor and fun, these luscious orange-flavored tarts are
 filled with cherries and blueberries.
 Preheat oven to 400F.
 Grate peel from orange to measure 2 tsp; squeeze juice to measure 4 tbsp.
 Place flour and sugar in food processor with butter; pulse, using on-off,
 just until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
 Add egg yolks, orange peel and 3 tbsp reserved orange juice. Pulse just
 until mixture forms a ball, adding additional 1 tbsp orange juice if
 necessary.
 Pat dough into a flat disk; divide into sixths. On lightly floured cookie
 sheet, place one sixth of dough. Using floured fingers, shape dough into
 either a club, diamond, heart or spade playing-card shape, 4-1/2 x 3-1/2,
 forming a 1/2-inch high rim. (Or simply shape into 4-inch circle, forming
 a 1/2-inch high rim.) Repeat with the remaining dough.
 Freeze cookie sheet 5 minutes until dough is firm. Bake 14-16 minutes
 until crust is lightly browned. Cool on wire rack.
 To serve, spoon pie fillings into cookies crusts.Place tarts on individual
 serving plates. Garnish.
