Yes you can use a muffin tray to do this. Use the shorter type of muffin tray.

Thanks a lot!

hello
thanks for the recipe! all the cheese tarts i've made turned out great !
Hi Aunty,
Can I bake the base 1 or 2 days earlier and I have limited mould, can I removed the base once its bake but before putting in the cream? If yes, how can I preserve the freshness, store it in the fridge or air-tight container at room temperature will do.
Hi Sila
you can baked the tart shell and keep in the airtight containers, keep in the fridge, no problem. You can bake ahead even for a week.
If your tart shell is stable enough, then they can stand on it's own without the mould to bake the cheese filling.
