Variations
Classic Butter Tarts: Skip the nuts and raisins for the traditional filling, focusing on the rich, caramel-like flavor of the butter and sugar.

Maple Butter Tarts: Replace the brown sugar with maple syrup for a distinct maple flavor, making it a true Canadian treat.
FAQ
Q: Can I use store-bought pie crust for the tart shells?
A: Yes! Store-bought pie crust is a quick alternative if you’re short on time, though homemade crust adds a richer flavor and texture.
Q: How do I prevent the filling from overflowing?
A: Be sure not to overfill the tart shells. Leave a little room at the top of each tart to allow the filling to puff up without spilling over.
Q: Can I make these ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can prepare the tarts ahead of time and store them in an airtight container. They taste just as good the next day, and they can be frozen for longer storage.
