12 cup canned lemon pie filling
14 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

STEP 1
Heat oven to 375°F. Place paper baking cups into 24 mini muffin pan cups; set aside.

Combine all filling ingredients except egg in bowl; beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add egg; continue beating until well mixed.
STEP 4
Spoon 1 rounded tablespoon lemon mixture over crust mixture in each cup. Swirl tops with spoon. Bake 15-17 minutes or until puffed and set. Allow to cool 1 hour at room temperature. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or until serving time.

STEP 6
Store in container with tight-fitting lid in refrigerator up to 4 days.
- For best results, allow cream cheese and egg to come to room temperature before beating. This prevents lumps from forming in the tarts.
- The filling will settle and fall during chilling, creating a rich dense cheesecake filling.
- Place pie filling in disposable pastry bag fitted with tip or spoon into resealable plastic food bag with 1 corner cut off to pipe pie filling onto tops of cheesecakes.
- Each cheesecake can be spread with whipped cream and topped with a dollop of pie filling, if desired.
