Stir together 1 1/3 cups pie crust mix and 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cold water in a large bowl until pastry forms a ball; save remaining pie crust mix for another use. Divide pastry ball into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-inch circle on a floured surface. Drape each circle over inverted large 3x1 1/2-inch muffin cups or 6-ounce custard cups; make pleats, so pastry fits snugly against the cup. Prick surface using a fork. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes, then carefully remove tart shells from cups. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place 2 bacon slices into the bottom of each tart shell. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, making a small well in each. Break 1 egg into each well and add 1 tablespoon milk into each tart. Sprinkle with nutmeg and pepper. Place filled tarts on the same ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are soft-cooked, 15 to 20 minutes. Tips You can use individual pie or tart pans for baking the tart shells; cut dough circles 1 inch larger than the inverted pans, then fit them into the pans. You can use 1/2 cup diced cooked ham or 1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon instead of Canadian bacon. Use 2 tablespoons of meat in each tart shell. Editor's Note: The pie crust directions are based on Betty Crocker Pie Crust Mix for a single crust.
