it's been awhile since my last post, so i figured i better come up with something to make ASAP. i'm not sure how i came up with egg tart...but i researched some recipes and chose one from allrecipes.com. since i didn't have the traditional egg tart foil cups, i used a mini muffin tin. i started with the crust first. i used the 1 cup measuring cup to cut circles of dough to put in the muffin tin. after all the cups were filled, i made the custard - very easy - and then popped the tarts in the oven. luckily i read some of the comments to the recipe because i found out that the baking instructions on the recipe were no good. the recipe said to bake at 450 for 20 minutes (too hot for too long). instead, i baked the tarts at 425 for 10 minutes, then 295 for 7 minutes. a couple of the tarts browned a little too much, but the rest turned out golden brown.i'm glad i decided to make mini tarts. they are nice and bite size, perfect to pop in your mouth.
