Here’s what you need.
Super simple! 
1. First, preheat the oven to 355 F (180 C).
2. Using your electric mixer, mix the butter and sugar until fluffy.
3. Add the egg and mix to combine.
4. Then add about 2/3 of the flour and continue mixing.
5. Finally, add the rest of the flour and working with your hands, form a nice smooth dough ball.

6. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into about 1/10-inch (2 mm) thickness.

8. Grease and lightly flour the back side of a mini muffin pan.  Yes, we are working with a flipped mini muffin pan here. Fun, huh?

12. Then fill your shells with sweetened whipped cream and lots and lots of fresh fruit. You can use a little vanilla custard too, I like to spray whipped cream on the top for a delightful dessert! Enjoy!!
