These were great!!!! Mine were done in alittle less than 20 minutes but that is the only problem I really had! Thanks for the recipe! Oh and by the way, don't stack these tarts! Mine fell in when I did that!

I first made these for Christmas and they were so popular I make them regularly throughout the year. They are the right combination of sweet and tart with a lovely vanilla finish. Quick to make and the recipe is very forgiving - You can pull the tart shells out of the freezer, toss in frozen cranberries, mix up the coconut mixture in a minute and bake.

These tarts are wonderful. I had people who said they didn't like cranberries eating these and loving them. They are now a must in my Christmas cookie platters.
