Yum, is there anyoen who doesn't like butter tarts or bars!
ReplyDeleteHey, this is a great twist on an old favourite. My hubby loves butter tarts, but I find them a pain to make. This is an excellent alternative!
ReplyDeleterosanne....I know they are both great... :)
ReplyDeleteknatolee....they are really easy to make..and taste great...you could even add a bit of maple syrup to them... :)
Hendria these look delicious!
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing how simple those are. The possibilities are endless, even though I bet they are great just like that.
ReplyDeleteclumbsy cookie..thanks for the comment :)
ReplyDeleteadam.... yes you could do alot with this recipe..... you could add different things...caramel...nuts...maple syprup.. :)
I tried and the topping boiled over the dish. I think 2 tbsp of baking powdwe is to much. Maybe a typo...2 tsp of baking powder ould seem right. top burnt as well because it was so high.
ReplyDeleteconrad...yes it was a typo...I have changed it..sorry it did not turn out....if you try them again with the proper baking powder it will be much better... :)
ReplyDeleteI made this last night and it was yummy! Thanks:)
ReplyDeleteMy hubby doesn't care for raisins, do you think you could use something else, like dates, or pineapple in the tarts?
ReplyDeleteanonymous...not sure about the pineapple..but you could give it a try...You could use walnuts, pecans instead of the raisins...you could also cut up the raisins and add the nuts and he may not notice....:)
ReplyDeleteNancy...So glad you enjoyed them. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment
