The Best Butter Tarts
These Canadian treats are sweet, delicious, rich and simply irresistible.
The crust is flaky filled with perfectly sticky center
Ingredients
- butter tart shells (24 or 2 dozen)
- Butter Tart Filling
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 TBSP corn syrup
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Optional: walnuts, raisins, pecans
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Add the following ingredients to the mixing bowl: eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup and salt.
Mix all ingredients until well incorporated. (about 5 minutes)
Optional: Sprinkle each tart shell with chopped walnuts (or use your favorite like raisins, pecan...)
Pour filling into each shell but don't fill up, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. (I used 1 TBSP + 1 tsp of butter tart filling). BTW, 1/4 inch is about 5 mm.
Bake at 350 F for about 20 minutes. (start checking after 15 minutes)
Cool it.
Serve at room temperature.
Storage: Store them in the fridge for about 3 days.
Enjoy and share this recipe.
