About This Recipe
"These are perfect to serve at a get together, this recipe m akes a ton of
tarts (about 50 m ini tarts) but the recipe can be cut in half if desired. The
original recipe states to prepare the lem on m ixture on top of the stove, but
this tends to scorch easily so the second tim e I m ade it, it worked out
better in the m icrow ave, but you can definitely prepare it on top of the
stove in a heavy-bottom ed saucepan if desired. Although it is always
better to use fresh lem on juice, I use the juice of two lem ons and bottled lem on juice to m ake up the 1
cup, this is very lem ony and tart, so you m ight want to adjust the sugar to suit taste, just add in m ore
while the m ixture is cooking."
