Pinterest Success! I know these individual phyllo tart shells are great for little chicken pot pies, but I’d never tried them for dessert. Making the tarts into Easter Baskets was a cute idea I saw all over the Internet, so I take no credit for them, but also have no way to credit others. Sometimes good ideas are like that. =^..^=
