GRANDMA BEATRICE'S PRIZE BUTTER TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Combine brown sugar, raisins, butter, water, maple syrup, and vanilla in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until butter is melted and mixture is warm but not boiling, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for 10 minutes to cool a bit.
• Meanwhile, use a 4-inch round cutter to cut 12 circles of dough. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with the dough circles.
• Whisk egg and cream together in a small bowl, then whisk it into the cooled raisin mixture until well combined. Spoon it into the pastry shells, filling each one about 2/3 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to bake, watching carefully, until the pastry edges are delicately browned, about 6 more minutes. Try to catch them before the filling bubbles up and spills over the edges.
• Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before serving.

GRAMMA'S BUTTER TARTS

Steps:

• Whisk flour and 1 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl; cut lard into flour mixture with a pastry blender until crumbly. Make a well in the flour mixture and place 1 beaten egg into the well.
• Pour ice cold water and vinegar into flour mixture; stir with a wooden spoon until a dough forms. Divide dough into two balls; wrap dough in waxed paper and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Beat brown sugar and butter together in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth; beat in 2 eggs one at a time. Stir raisins and vanilla extract into butter mixture.
• Roll out one ball of dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness; reserve remaining dough for another use. Cut dough into circles large enough to fit into the bottom and partway up sides of the wells of a muffin tin using a round biscuit cutter. Press dough circles lightly into muffin tin to form tart shells; fill each shell 3/4 full with raisin mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbly and pastry is lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (170 degrees C).
• Cream the butter, sugar and eggs well. Add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly.
• Pour batter into tart shells, no more than half full. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes. Watch carefully!!--they'll burn quickly. Filling will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks or so. Liquid coffee creamer can be used for cream. Use any good pie pastry for shells.

• Filling:.
• Mix all ingredients until well blended; set aside.
• Pastry:.
• Cut butter and shortening together using a fork or pastry whisk utensil.
• Slowly add salt and flour to the butter and shortening cutting it in until the mixture looks like small crumbles.
• Add cold water one tablespoon at a time until the dough sticks together.
• Roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick.
• Use a wide mouthed glass (I use a pint glass) to cut out circles.
• Place circles into an ungreased cupcake pan.
• Pour filling into the crusts, about a quarter of the way full. Be careful not to over fill as the mixture will bubble up and make the tarts stick to the pan.
• Bake in oven at 425°F for about 12-15 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
• Good luck and enjoy!
