Mini Blueberry Lemon Tarts
You can look at this as portion controlled dessert or an excuse to eat more than one - but do that standing because we all know that calories consumed while standing and eating over the sink (on shabbos!) don't count. I made these for a kiddush and we all loved them. So much so that my friend Atara made this into a big pie - but for some reason she said it wasn't as good. So best to keep these babies bite-sized.
Easy non dairy mini tarts with sweet cream and blueberries, perfect Summer treat.
