Butter Tarts

Five days, and I'm still at it! Yay me!

I've worked a large percent of the holiday season and I'm beat. I don't at all feel like blogging, and I don't think anybody would really notice at this point if I didn't. I need sleep. I'm not giving up that easy though. Remember the pie dough we made yesterday? A single batch of that should fill a dozen medium tart tins....

Butter Tarts

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup butter
• ½ cup lightly packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• ½ cup corn syrup
• 1 tbsp vanilla

Method:

1. Cream butter and sugar together
2. Add eggs an mix until incorporated fully
3. Add remaining ingredients and mix well
4. Fill unbaked tart shells a little more than half full
5. For the mundane, add a few raisins or pecans to each tart. For the adventurous, add dark chocolate chunks, craisins, or goji berrys.
   
6. Bake @ 350° F for about 25 minutes

I have made literally thousands of these. They're good. I'll perhaps expand on this after school tomorrow. Then we'll do a yeast recipe. Gluten Nacht!
