Absolutely amazing tasting and super easy. I didn’t change a thing and these tarts came out perfectly. They will most certainly be gone in short order.

Super easy recipe and very tasty to boot. Only substitution I used was white sugar instead of corn syrup for lack of liquid sweetner in my kitchen.

I added 1 Tblsp. of Lemon Juice to cut the overly sweet taste but otherwise it holds up great and tastes great.
