BUTTER TARTS (WITH CURRANTS)
This recipe was a Christmas treat I remember from my childhood. I think it originates in Canada, but I'm not sure. My mother always made one batch of butter tarts and one batch of tarts with raspberry jam. The jam tarts were fair game, but she always hid most of the butter tarts for herself.
