06 Step
Recipe View
Let the butter tarts cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
For a deeper caramel flavor, use dark muscovado sugar instead of dark brown sugar.
To plump the raisins, soak them in warm water or rum for about 30 minutes, then drain well before adding to the filling.
Toasting the pecans enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, or in the oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 5-7 minutes.
If the tart shells start to brown too quickly, tent them with foil during the last few minutes of baking.
These butter tarts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
