Cheesy Crab Tarts image

I love to entertain and always looking for yummy appetizers. These wonderful little tarts are compliments of Paula Deen. I prepared them ahead of time and warmed them in the oven before my guests arrived. Besides their scrumptious taste and slight kick they make a beautiful presentation. I also substituted the lump crab with imitation crab.

I'm not a big fan of crab, but I loved these tarts! The filling was creamy and cheesy, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I would definitely make these again.

The crab tarts were good, but the filling was a little runny. I think I'll cook it for a few minutes longer next time.

These tarts were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some Old Bay seasoning next time.

These crab tarts were a hit at my last party! The flaky crust and cheesy filling were perfect, and the crab was cooked to perfection. I'll definitely be making these again.
