Steps:
- Mix yogurt and whipped topping.
- Mix well.
- Spoon into tart shells.
- Cover and freeze for 20 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh berries.
Tips:
- Use ripe berries: Fresh, ripe berries will give your tarts the best flavor. If you can't find ripe berries, you can use frozen berries that have been thawed and drained.
- Don't overfill the tart shells: If you overfill the tart shells, the filling will bubble over and make a mess. Fill the tart shells about 2/3 full.
- Bake the tarts until the filling is set: The filling should be set when you insert a toothpick into the center and it comes out clean. If the filling is still runny, continue baking for a few more minutes.
- Let the tarts cool before serving: This will help the filling to set and make it easier to slice the tarts.
- Serve the tarts with your favorite toppings: You can serve the tarts with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.
