Instructions

1

Prepare Tart Shells

Arrange the store-bought mini tart shells on a serving platter. If they appear soft, toast them in the oven at 350 degrees F for 3 minutes to crisp them up before filling.

2

Fill with Lemon Curd

Spoon approximately 2 to 3 tablespoons of lemon curd into each tart shell filling them just to the rim. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.

3

Top and Serve

Add a small dollop of freshly whipped cream to the center of each tart and garnish with a pinch of fresh lemon zest. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes before serving.
