Pie Day - Key Lime Tarts

Key Lime Tarts in a Pastry Crust

I picked up a dozen tart tins

Tart tins in my well used muffin pan

Key Lime Tarts
I partially baked the tart shell and then finished baking it with the filling.

The challenge is a balancing act.  Don't under bake the crust and over bake the filling.

I baked the tart crust for about 8 minutes and after filling them baked the for about 11 more.  

I need to bake the tarts longer next time prior to filling them.  

So far I have not found instructions for doing this, so I am going on trial and error.
Update-
I just read a recipe with an internal temp for Key Lime.
It said bake to 145 degrees.
I'll make a note for next time.

Yummy
