- Line your mini muffin pan with mini paper liners.
- Press firmly about a Tbs of crust into each liner, make sure you press up the sides also.
- Bake for 8-10 min, or until crust is golden.
- Let cool completely, you can leave in pan or take out.
- Filling:
- In a medium bowl beat softened cream cheese for about a min( if you skip this step, your cheese will be lumpy.
- Slowly add the sweetened condensed milk and mix until smooth.
- Add key lime juice, mix well.
- Taste, if you would like a stronger flavor add as necessary.
- Pour into a pastry bag or a ziploc bag with end cut off and fill each cooled tart evenly.
- Place in fridge for @ least 3 hrs-overnight (the longer the better).
- Just before serving you can sprinkle some toasted coconut and a strawberry slice or just one or the other.
