Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup icing sugar
2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbsp poppy seeds
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
1 large egg yolk
2 tbsp cold water
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups lemon curd (your own recipe , mine or store bought)
1 cup chilled heavy cream
2 tbsp icing sugar
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
poppy seed

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350*F and lightly oil bottoms of 8 (3 1/2 by 2/3 inch) round tartlet pans.
Pulse together flour, icing sugar, salt and poppy seeds in a food processor.
Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Whisk together yolk, water and lemon juice in a bowl, then add to processor and pulse until pea size lumps form and dough holds together when squeezed (dough will appear slightly crumbly).
Press 1/4 cup of dough evenly into each tart shell with floured fingers (dough will be moist) and lightly prick bottoms with a fork.
Chill until firm, about 20 minutes.
Put shells on a baking sheet and bake in lower third of oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
Transfer to a rack and when shells are just cool enough to handle, carefully loosen edges with a thin knife and remove from pans.
Fill each shell with 3 TBS of lemon curd.
Beat together cream with icing sugar and lemon juice in a bowl with an electric mixer just until it hold stiff peaks.
Transfer to a pastry bag with a decorative tip and pipe onto top of the curd (in a flower shape) (Or dollop with a spoon).
Sprinkle a few poppy seeds in center to look like flower stamens, for a lovely finish.
