Colleen's Butter Tarts image

I received this recipe from a friend many years ago. It has a custard-type filling that is not runny. These butter tarts are not overly sweet.

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (15 ounce) package pie crust pastry
1 cup corn syrup
⅔ cup brown sugar
3 eggs
⅓ cup melted butter
1 pinch salt
½ cup chopped pecans, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Roll prepared pie crust pastry out on a lightly floured surface; cut into circles using a biscuit cutter. Press pastry circles into 12 individual size tart tins.
  • Beat corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and salt together in a mixing bowl until frothy, about 2 minutes.
  • Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons pecans into bottom of each tart shell; pour in egg mixture to fill shells 3/4 full.

I thought these butter tarts were going to be good, but I was wrong. The filling is bland and the crust is tough.

These butter tarts are okay. The filling is a little too sweet for my taste.

I'm not a huge fan of butter tarts, but these ones are pretty good. The filling is creamy and the crust is flaky.

The crust on these butter tarts is so flaky and delicious. It's the perfect complement to the creamy filling.

These butter tarts turned out amazing! The filling was creamy and rich, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a classic Canadian treat.
