Description
These Mini Lemon Tarts are a simple three-ingredient dessert with a smooth, tangy filling nestled inside crisp phyllo shells. They’re quick to prepare, easy to serve, and ideal for gatherings or last-minute treats.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- 25 mini phyllo cups
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and arrange phyllo cups on a baking sheet.
- Whisk condensed milk and lemon juice together until thickened and smooth.
- Spoon filling into each phyllo shell, filling just below the rim.
- Bake 8–10 minutes until set but still slightly soft in the center.
- Cool completely, then refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
- Do not overbake; the filling should remain pale and glossy.
