The Best Pecan Tart Recipe

The original recipe was for Butter Tarts but I changed it as I am not a big fan of raisins.
  • 2 tbls. Butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg well beaten
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup (optional)
  • 1 cup pecan halves or peices
I place pecan peices in tart shells so that each shell has the same amount of pecans. Mix the other ingredients together. The optional corn syrup makes them more on the runny side, so it is really your personal preference. I always use the corn syrup. Tablespoon filling into each tart. Enough to make a dozen. Bake at 425 degree oven for 10 - 12 minutes.
*Another alternative would be to use 1/2 cup chopped walnuts with 1 cup raisins instead of pecans*
