The crust was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious.

These cookie tarts were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

These were so easy to make and turned out so delicious! I used a store-bought shortbread cookie mix for the crust, and the cream cheese filling was perfect.

Made these for a luau and they were a huge hit! The filling was creamy and sweet, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making these again.
