Description

This pecan tarts recipe makes eight tiny tarts filled with a sweet, buttery pecan filling. Pipe a whipped cream rosette on top for a fancy dessert.

Ingredients

• 1 (14 1/10 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed

• 1 cup white sugar

• 2 large eggs, beaten

• 5 tablespoons dark corn syrup

• 3 tablespoons butter, melted

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 cup chopped pecans

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease eight 3-inch tart tins.

2 Roll out pastry and cut out eight 5-inch circles; fit pastry circles into greased tart tins.

3 Mix sugar, eggs, corn syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until combined; stir in pecans. Spoon filling into each pastry-lined tart tin, filling each 3/4 full.

4 Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is golden brown and filling is set, about 30 to 35 minutes.
