Comment préparer Award Winning Butter Tarts

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roll out pie dough to ⅛ inch thickness and use a 4-inch cookie cutter or glass to cut out 12 circles.
Gently press dough circles into 12 muffin cups.
Refrigerate tart shells for at least 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine ½ cup raisins and cover with hot tap water. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Stir in ½ cup light corn syrup and ¼ teaspoon salt until well combined.
Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
Drain the raisins well. Add ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional) to the drained raisins.
Evenly divide the raisin and walnut mixture among the prepared tart shells.
Pour the butter mixture evenly over the raisin and walnut mixture in each tart shell, filling almost to the top.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is lightly browned and bubbling. For a runnier tart, bake for 15 minutes. For a firmer tart, bake for 20 minutes or slightly longer.
Let the butter tarts cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
