These cookie tarts make fantastic one-bite desserts and are delicious when lemon curd is the filling plus whipped cream on top. Am 90 and this easy cookie tart is so much easier than making from scratch and the lemon curd is made easily in micro oven. Enjoy all the input.

Because I wanted this for more of a dessert rather than an appetizer I made them in regular muffin cups. I used two cookie balls and had to cook them a little longer than called for. Since most of the kids don't like nuts or raspberry jam I dipped mine in differnt toppings, crushed butterfingers, crushed oreo's, crushed nestleys crunch bars. Instead of raspery jam I put a few crumbs of whatever I dipped the outer edge in and then topped it with a little chocolate syrup then scooped the ice cream in and topped it with chocolate syrup and a few of the crushed crumbs. Was a huge hit.

These were a big hit at our family Sunday dinner. I made them in the big muffin cups so it would make a little more. I put two cooked round instead of one in the muffin cups and had to cook them a little longer. I dipped them in chocoloat then dipped some in butterfinger crumbs, oreo crumbs and Nestle Cruch crumbs, since there are a lot of children and our family dinners and they don't like nuts. The kids and adults raved about them. There were simple to make and a lot of fun. I will diffinatley make them again.
