Butter tarts

Butter tarts are famous in Canada (as are Nanaimo bars). Don't know why they never caught on in the US.

 

Butter tarts

1/4c soft butter

1/4c packed brown sugar

1/2c corn syrup

vanilla

1 egg

1/2c raisins (soak in hot water for 30min)

 

With a wooden spoon, cream butter & sugar. Add syrup & vanilla. Mix. Add egg and mix well.

Pat raisins dry and divide among 12 tart shells. Spoon in filling. Bake 400°F for 18-19min.
