...we loved making Quiche Lorraine for our French themed classes last week - and making these mini ones are perfect for a snack or to take on a picnic. You can add anything in them...
We also have some interesting responses to the question - What is baking blindly ? From closing your eyes and putting your cakes into the oven to not baking the pasty at all! Our cooks were not familiar with the term "Soggy Bottom!"
You can be extra diligent and make the dough but shop bought dough is just as good and far less messy!
