Pecan Butter Tarts
I searched for the perfect butter tart for ages. After many attempts, I discovered this favorite that begs for a scoop of ice cream on top. —Susan Kieboam, Streetsboro, Ohio

Reviews
Made these for my family over the holidays and received nothing but rave reviews. The only complaint I got was when they were gone. They were just the right amount of sweetness and the plump raisins created little flavor explosions on my palate. Will definitely be making these again soon! A
I made these the other day and found them way too sweet! I followed the recipe exactly as written. Usually I can handle sweet, but this was even too much for me.
My family thought these were the BEST creations I ever made!!! We all love Pecan pies and make excellent pies, but this was so simple and dee-lish-ous!!!! My grandson is heading back to college this weekend and I am getting ready to make him a batch "to go".YUMMY!!!!!!
Yum! This recipe is magnificent! These are so good, there is no time between the oven and my mouth to even add ice cream ??
