Prepare the tart shells by removing them from their packaging if using pre-made shells. If using homemade, ensure they are baked and cooled before proceeding.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully incorporated.
Spoon the mascarpone filling evenly into the tart shells and smooth the top with a spatula. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the blueberry topping.
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries release their juices and begin to soften (about 5 minutes).
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to form a slurry. Add this mixture to the saucepan and stir well. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a glossy compote. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
Once the blueberry compote has cooled, spoon it over the chilled mascarpone-filled tart shells, spreading it evenly.
Serve immediately or chill further for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with fresh blueberries or a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
