Mom frequently made 2-3 "fake-tarts" by putting her extra left over pie dough in 2-3 muffin cups, topping with ~1 T of jam. Can't get any quicker than that. If you want "tarts" that are little pies, you could cut pie/tart dough with a round cookie cutter, and make them by the dozen. The crust sounds like the hardest part. My roommate made some fantastic apple-custard tarts.....I'll find the recipie if anyone is interested. (sorry, no estimate of labor; she did it while I was at work.) -- John W - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Name: John F.
