canadian butter tarts
Butter tarts are a Canadian tradition. They are rich, sweet and gooey. This recipe includes raisins but some include walnuts or neither. Making pastry is an art form I have not mastered so this recipe uses store bought frozen shells. Sometimes the tarts can run over when cooking so don't fill them too full. You might want to cook 24 tarts in 2 batches. Enjoy!
