Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange tart shells on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract until well combined. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Carefully fill each tart shell approximately 2/3 full with the butter mixture. (7 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the pastry is lightly golden brown and the filling is set. (18 minutes)

06

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. The filling will firm up as it cools. (30 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
Ensure the butter is properly softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
Do not overfill the tart shells, as the filling will expand during baking.
For a hint of spice, add a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the butter mixture.
Store cooled butter tarts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
