| Lemon Curd is a slightly tart filling that's very thick unlike pudding. Most of us love lemon here. However we still have chocolate lovers too! So, you can fill them with whatever you like! |
 |
| My son loves chocolate pudding hands down! |
 |
| I had just gone to a new kitchen store and spotted these mini tart pans. Although I am no where near a pastry chef by any means, I had to go home and play right away! I love these, they are so versatile on what you can use them for. Desserts, meat fillings, salad style appetizers. I can just come up with a ton of uses for them! |
 |
| Easy to do, there was nothing to it! Use your favorite pie crust recipe or store bought! |

| Of course you can fill them with vanilla, fruit topped, chocolate, raspberries, lemon, banana, the skies the limit right? |
