Making individual meringue jam-filled tartlets is a wonderful addition to your dessert table. It’s hard to put into words how tasty these sweet, crunchy, and creamy these individual desserts are, but I can tell you that they have a melt-in-your mouth texture. The tarts are baked using pantry staple ingredients, then filled with your favorite jam and topped with baked fluffy meringue.
