Lemon-Lime Tarts


Ingredients:
1 box Pillsbury pie crust (softened)
3 oz. cream cheese
2 Tbs. powdered sugar
2 Tbs. whipping cream
1 tsp. grated lime peel
1/4 c. lemon curd
Garnish:
Lime and lemon zest


Heat oven to 350 degrees. Unroll pie crust onto work surface. Use the bottom of a shot glass to cut our circles. Place each cutout circle into a mini muffin tin. Bake for 3-5 minutes or until slightly golden. Cool completely. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Spoon into a Ziplock bag, cut a small hole in the corner of the bag, and pipe onto your pie crust circles. In another bowl, stir the lime peel into the lemon curd. Spoon or pipe on top of the cream cheese mixture. Garnish with the lemon and lime zest.

Makes about 60 mini tarts.
