CARAMEL BROWNIE TARTS

Grab a drink in one hand and a pastry bag in the another, we are going to hit this Sandra Lee style. Objections? I don’t think so. Sometimes everyone needs a fancy semi-homemade treat. And if we are going to do it, lets do it with some ready-made brownie bites for the base, ready-made caramel for a filling and homemade brûlée meringue to finish.
