I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sand tarts turned out flat and crumbly. I think I may have overmixed the dough.

I was really disappointed with these sand tarts. The crust was too dry and the filling was too runny.

These sand tarts are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
