Roll the sugar cookie dough into small balls and press them into the bottom and sides of a mini muffin tin to form cups.
Bake for about 8-10 minutes until the edges are set but the cups remain pale.
Let the cookie cups cool completely.
Filling
Once cooled, fill each cookie cup with homemade lemon curd.
Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve.
Notes
Serve as a light dessert or sweet snack. Garnish with lemon slices or mint for presentation. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Fill cups with lemon curd just before serving.
