: Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
• 2 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar

: Instructions

1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and sugar. Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour mixture until you have pea-sized crumbs.
2. Add the egg yolks and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of water. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface until it’s about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles with a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass. Press the circles into a mini muffin tin.
4. Bake the crusts for 12-15 minutes, or until they’re lightly golden. Set aside to cool.
5. In a small saucepan, combine the lemon juice, sugar, butter, and lemon zest. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a simmer. Remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
6. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream and confectioners’ sugar until soft peaks form. Fold the cooled lemon mixture into the whipped cream until it’s well-combined.
7. Spoon the lemon filling into the cooled tart crusts. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Enjoy!

: Tips

• If you don’t have a mini muffin tin, you can use a regular muffin tin instead.
• You can substitute lime juice for the lemon juice to make lime tarts.
• To make the crust flakier, freeze the cut-out circles for 10-15 minutes before baking them.
