Lemon Filled Tarts

Ingredients:
Tarts:

1 cup of butter
½ cup of icing sugar
1 ½ cups flour
1 tbsp. cornstarch

Directions:

  1. Mix ingredients in mix master. Don't roll but pat into tiny tart tins, 4 cm, with your fingers to form shells. Prick the bottoms with a fork and bake for 20 minutes at 300-325 degrees. After 10 minutes prick bottoms again as shells puff up. This recipe doubles well and they freeze beautifully.

½ cup fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp. grated lemon rind
1 cup sugar
3 eggs (well beaten)
½ butter, room temperature

Directions:
  1. Put juice and rind in double boiler. Whisk in sugar, eggs and butter, blend well. Place over gently boiling water and whisk constantly until mixture becomes clear and thickens, cool.
