Lemon Dream Tassies

Prep Time: 40 Minutes Start to Finish: 2 Hours 10 Minutes

1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix

1/2 cup whole almonds, ground

6 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

1 package (3 oz) cream cheese, softened

1 jar (12 oz) lemon curd

2/3 cup Betty Crocker® whipped fluffy white frosting

1/2 cup frozen (thawed) whipped topping

1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

2 tablespoons sliced almonds

3. Shape dough into 36 (1 1/4‐inch) balls. Press each ball in bottom and up side of muffin cup.

4. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely in pan, about 30 minutes.

5. Remove cookie cups from pan. Fill each with about 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon curd.

36 cookie cups

How‐To If you only have one 12‐cup mini muffin pan, shape all of the dough into balls. Fill the pan and cover the remaining balls to keep them from drying out. After baking, cool the muffin pan completely before refilling it with dough.

Purchasing Find lemon curd next to the jams and jellies at the supermarket. You might like to try lime or raspberry curd.

Substitution Betty Crocker® whipped cream cheese frosting or whipped cream frosting can be used for the fluffy white.
