Hjermstad, I asked the same question the other day, but it didn't get printed for some reason? Interesting that only you and I have asked that question, though. In the past, I have made a lemon "curd" for lemon meringue pie, but I suspect they don't mean for us to go to all that trouble. I know there is a canned lemon pie filling on the market, and I suspect that's what they mean. I'm gonna give it a try anyway.

What is lemon curd and where do you find it in the store?

I have a tip for this recipe. You can use the top of a small empty prescription bottle to press down the denter of each cookie. Works great!

I think they are wonderful but the only thing is I think they are too sweet by using the sugar cookie dough. I replaced the sugar cookie dough with ready pie crust and it came out great just not as sweet. Great Recipe!

These are wonderful, but the recipe for the meringue should be doubled as it was no where near enough. Also, I had to use more than 3/4 cup of the curd. Otherwise, these were awesome!

Wonderful! I used a mini cupcake/muffin/tart pan ($5 from WalMart), spritzed each cup with a wee bit of cooking spray & put 1/2 the amount of cookie dough in each, making 48 one bite cookies. I thinned a 10 oz jar of lemon curd with a little lemon juice to make it smooth & creamy and had just enough to fill all 48 mini cups (with a little left over for tasting). There was enough meringue left over to make a few 'Forgotten Cookies'. I added some mini chocolate chips and put them in the oven after I had turned it off, letting them stay in there overnight. Perfect for my holiday cookie exchange!

I had the same problem getting them out of the pan. I did a slight twist before lifting them, only 3 were stuck. Definitely needed more lemon curd than the amount suggested.

I already own a mini-tart shaper (item 1590) from Pampered Chef (aka a "tassie smoosher"). Great, inexpensive, tool for shaping the cookie cups or any other mini-tart perfectly.

Wrong quantity of lemon curd or incorrect directions. If using 1 Tablespoon per miniature pie, you need twice as much - 1 1/2 C. I had 10 oz. jar, about 15 T., and filled the 24 pies just barely. A bit tricky to get the pies out of the pan. Better to let cool in pan about 2 minutes, then run knife around edge and lift with a tablespoon. Very pretty and very sweet.
