Description
A lovely fall appetizer. I served these at a bridal shower and they were a huge hit! You can buy premade tartlet shells if short on time-the filling is a snap to put together. Cook time includes 2 hours of chilling. I also like to use cheesecake pudding mix. The filling is good as a dip with graham crackers too…mmmm!
