Easy to make, but the crust turned out quite thin. However, it seems that everyone in the office loved it!

These were quick to make and also very easy.I added some grated lemon rind to the cookie dough crust as well.Nice lemony taste ( like lemon meringue pie ).Next time I will add a bit more sugar to filling as I found it a little too tart for my preference.These are a definite make again!!
