Tips:
If you don't like lemon, you can replace it with orange, or vanilla, or any flavor you like.
You can add cupcake cases and pour the mixture into the cases or into the tin directly. I personally put it in the tin directly. While tarts are still hot, use a knife and go around the edges to get them out of the tin and cool on a rack.
You can decorate the tarts with coconut or icing sugar to serve.
