Take a muffin pan for shaping the tartlets.

If you don't have a muffin pan, use old-fashioned tartlet molds.

Prepare empanada dough (store-bought or homemade).

Place the empanada dough inside the muffin molds to shape the tartlets.

Add cherry tomatoes to the tartlets, using the amount you prefer.

Add cream cheese to the tartlets instead of mozzarella cheese.

Sprinkle dried basil into the tartlets, or use fresh basil if preferred.

Fill the tartlets with more cherry tomatoes and cream cheese.

For the Russian-style version, add chopped hard-boiled egg and green olives to the filling.

If desired, substitute green olives with black olives.

Bake in a strong oven until the cheese is melted and the dough is browned and crispy.
