Key Lime Tarts

Spring is here! It's been nice enough to grill outside. A quick treat to make for desert is Key Lime Tarts. And being I had lived in Florida for several years this is a very, very yummy treat.

Ingredients:

24 Key Lime Cooler Cookies
8 ounces of softened cream cheese
1 egg
1/2 cup of sugar
2 tablespoons of lime key lime juice
1 teaspoon of lime zest
fresh sweetened whipped cream
mint or lime zest for garnish

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Fill 2 ( 12 muffin ) mini muffin tins with paper cups that have been sprayed with cooking spray. Place one cookie in the bottom of each paper cup with flat side down.
Prepare the filling by beating the cream cheese, egg, sugar, lime juice and zest until well mixed. fill the cups with mixture to the top. Bake tarts for 10-12 mins. remove tarts to cool. When completely cooled top each tart with sweetened whipped cream. Garnish with mint leaf or lime zest.
