Gooey Butter Tart Squares

We love butter tarts here, but I’m not a big fan of the process involved.  My sister-in-law makes wonderful butter tarts at Christmas time, so that’s when we get to enjoy them.

But this Butter Tart Square recipe is a close second.  It’s much easier, less prep work, and still tastes great!

Look at that gooey, sticky goodness!
 
Here’s the recipe:
 
Butter Tart Squares
Crust:
1 1/2c. flour
2 Tbsp. white sugar
1/2 c. butter
Preheat oven to 350
Combine flour and sugar.  Cut in butter until crumbly.
Press into a 9 inch square pan.  Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. (see below for a parchment paper baking tip that may change your life!)
 
Filling:
2 eggs
1 1/2c. brown sugar
1/4c. butter
1 Tbsp. vinegar
1 tsp. flour
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. raisins
Beat eggs and brown sugar until fluffy. 
Stir in remaining ingredients.  Pour over crust. 
Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
 

Allow to cool for a bit before cutting, and enjoy!

I live in Bowmanville, and am a mom to four young boys - it can get a little loud in my house. I am a Christian, a part-time French teacher, a piano teacher and former homeschooler. I love finding the best deals, which will come in handy when our boys become hungry teenagers! We just moved to a house with more outdoor space, and I'm still getting used to life in the country (a walk around the block is a lot longer here!).
