Scrumtious. We made these for a friends dinner and everyone loved them, including the children. We used small tart shells so they were bite size.

I have been making these for years, but I use refrigerated pie crust and bake them at 400 degrees for 8 minutes after they have been pricked in 5 inch tart shells...very impressive dessert
