Hi Cherry, this pastry dough does make quite a nice "short" crust. It melts in your mouth, similar to shortbread. You're welcome to use this dough to blind bake mini tart shells. Just be sure to dock the dough (prick it with a fork) to let the steam escape. This helps prevent the crust from puffing up while it bakes. You can also consider using our Citrus Scented Tart Dough which is designed to be used in this fashion. It's also a bit sweet, which is nice in some recipes. Kye@KAF
