Instead of a whole pie, try making bite-size tarts. The diminutive desserts cook quicker and are automatically portion controlled. Plus, they're easier to make for a crowd, and there's no need for a fork and plate.

I made them the other night. I swap out the phyllo pre made pie crust, which I rolled out and took a glass and cut circles and put into cupcake pans. I also added apple pie spice to the butter and sugar mixture . They came out great!!! Due to the swap with the crust had to bake for 30 mins. - 11/5/10

Is phyllo dough tart shells something you can find in the grocery store? I don't think I've ever seen them there. - 11/11/09

Yes, they are available in the freezer section of the store. Ask at your local supermarket; they should be able to help you find them.
