tip:
Use a premade pastry from the refrigerated section at your grocery store.
One (15 ounce) package has 2 crusts. Allow to come to room temperature
or soften as package directs.
tip:
Make a variety of pie tartlets in your favorite flavor. For example, fill baked pie shell
tartlets with prepared pudding (from a mix, a can or your favorite recipe—chocolate,
vanilla, coconut, butterscotch or any flavor), lemon curd or other favorite fillings. Be
creative. For a banana pudding pie tartlet, layer a sliced banana with banana cream
or vanilla pudding in a baked tartlet shell. For a chocolate peanut butter tartlet, place
about 1 teaspoon peanut butter into each baked pie shell, then top with chocolate
pudding and whipped topping. For an ice cream tartlet, fill baked pie shells with ice
cream and freeze, then dollop with whipped topping just before serving.
