Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
• Mix the cream cheese, sugar, and cinnamon together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Set aside.
• Place the puff pastry shells on the prepared cookies sheet. Brush each shell with milk and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.

• Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into each shell. Top with 6 to 8 blackberries. Place a puff pastry cap on top of each shell over the berries.
• Return filled pastry shells to oven, and bake until pastry tops are golden brown and the filling is warm, about 5 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out pastry to a 10-by-12-inch rectangle. With a sharp knife, trim edges and cut pastry into eight 3-by-5-inch pieces. Place pastry on a large baking sheet and refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer sheet to oven and bake until pastry is puffed and golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool, then split each pastry horizontally.
• In a bowl, mash blackberries and sugar with a fork until juicy but still chunky. Spread mascarpone on pastry bottoms. Top with blackberry mixture and pastry tops.

• Using a 1 1/2 to 2-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out 12 round pieces.

• Using a slightly smaller round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out inner circles in each pastry round, leaving them in place.
• Brush each pastry round with beaten egg.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and puffed, 13 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before filling.
• Cut around the small inner circle of each pastry round and gently push it down.
• Fill each tartlet with lemon curd and top with a blackberry, or any fresh berry.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out pastry to a 13-by-15-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface; trim edges with a knife. Transfer to a baking sheet; freeze for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Combine walnuts, brown sugar, cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Brush pastry with egg wash, avoiding edges so that egg doesn't drip over sides. Score a line around edge of pastry using a knife to create a 3/4-inch border (do not cut all the way through). Cover center with walnut mixture. Arrange apricots and blackberries on top. Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Bake until pastry is golden brown and fruit is soft, about 30 minutes more. Let cool.
