Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Phyllo tart shells (pre-made)
- 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cups Key lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Key lime zest
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar
- 1 handful Fresh mint leaves or lime zest (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the pre-made phyllo tart shells onto a baking sheet and bake them for 3-5 minutes until lightly crisp and golden. Remove them from the oven and let them cool.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and key lime zest. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
In a separate bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the key lime mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
Spoon or pipe the key lime filling into the cooled phyllo tart shells, filling each one generously.
Optionally, garnish each tart with a small mint leaf or a sprinkle of lime zest for added presentation.
Chill the tarts in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
Serve and enjoy your lovely Key Lime Phyllo Tarts!
