Key Lime Tarts - What's Cooking Wednesday

Paula's always up for a challenge so she decided to make an already delicious key lime cooler cookie even better. The result: key lime tarts with a cream cheese center and cookies for the crust! Find the recipe below. -- INGREDIENTS 24 key lime cooler cookies 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1 egg 1/2 cup sugar 2 tablespoons lime juice, preferably Key lime 1 teaspoon lime zest fresh, sweetened whipped cream fresh mint, or lime zest for garnish Preparation Preheat oven to 350°.
