Quickie dessert: concord jam tartlets

A couple weeks ago I went through the trouble of making concord grape jam using this excellent recipe from The Hungry Mouse. We loved the jam and thought it was so delicious it ought to be in dessert. But after making the jam (plus doing 1000 other things that day) I wanted to go way, way easy.

This is why they invented marscapone cheese.

I had Lane pickup some ginger biscuits from the store, which we crumbled over the bottom of some ramekins. Over the cookies we spread a thick layer of marscapone, topped with a few spoonfulls of jam. I think the spiciness of ginger is a zesty compliment to earthy, almost-tart concord grapes.
