Steps:
- If you object to liqueur, the Kahlua can be omitted.
- By hand, mix the dough ingredients together.
- Make into small balls.
- Press into mini muffin cups and prick with a fork 4-5 times.
- Bake 350F for 12-15 minutes.
- Let cool and then remove from tins.
- Using a double boiler, melt the caramels.
- Add the evaporated milk and Kahlua, stirring well.
- Fill the tarts 1/2 full with the melted filling.
- Beat 1/2 cup margarine, 1/2 cup Crisco and 1/2 cup sugar until very smooth and fluffy.
- Add 1 small can evaporated milk and 1 T Kahula, or more to taste.
- Beat at least 10-15 minutes or until the consistancy of a light fluffy whipped topping.
- Using a pastry bag, or a strong plastic bag with the corner cut off, pipe the frosting on top of the cooled caramel filled cups.
- Sprinkle the tops with nuts or sprinkles.
- If I'm in a cookie baking frenzy, I make the dough cups one day and then fill and ice them another.
- I keep them in the freezer until it's time to put them on my trays.
