I was looking for a recipe for tarts to make for christmas that was easy and delicious. I couldn't find anything on line that worked for me in one recipe so I took a little bit from a couple of recipes and came up with this. Ingredients:
1 cup raisins |
1 cup brown sugar |
3/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, melted |
1 egg, beaten |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup butter |
1/2 cup icing sugar |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 cups flour |
1 pinch baking soda |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. mix all ingrediants for the crust until crumbly,,,form a ball and place in fridge for at least one hour.
2. pre heat oven to 400°F.
3. roll out dough to desired thickness. I like 3/8 of an inch.
4. place in tart pan or greased muffin tin.
5. place all ingrediants for the filling in a pot on stove and slowly heat for about 10 minutes.
6. spoon into tarts and bake for 20-25 minutes.
