Simple Lemon Tartlets

These cute little tarts will be sure to impress your family and friends!!,,Using premade pie crust helps in making these really simple to make!,,I used a 3 inch diameter Wilton flower cookie cutter,,,,Next time I am going to experiment with different shapes,,,I think a star shape would be fun!,.....and as far as fillings go the possibilities are endless!!,,,I used lemon fruit filling for these, but I think any type of pudding or pie filling would work great, I would also like to try a putting a slice of banana on bottom and then topping with banana pudding and whip cream!!,,,You can be creative and have some fun with this!....In the past I have also made little pumpkin pies, which I added the filling to the raw crust and baked together,,,,when using a pudding or pie filling you would just bake the crust first and when cool add your filling!...Here is what I did....Enjoy!!
