Work the dough using a rolling pin and open the sheet as much as we can. We want to have a thickness of about 3 millimeters. With an upside down glass cut the dough. Put a portion of a teaspoon from the stuffing in the center of the round dough and, using your fingers, pour the circumference of the dough to take the shape of the tart (it helps with one hand to pinch and the other to push it with a toothpick).<\/li> <li>Place them on non-stick paper and bake for about 20 minutes until golden-brown.
