Pecan Pie Tarts are a true holiday treat. Brown sugar, butter, and pecans, in a cream cheese and butter pastry crust - but make it bite-size.

CHEF TALK: I like Pâte Brisée for butter tarts. You can find the recipe for Pâte Brisée here. My Mom always made this family favourite with maple syrup and I have carried on that French Canadian tradition. The filling for this tart recipe is essentially a custard (similar to pecan pie filling or cheesecake). The addition of maple syrup is delightful and oh, so Canadian. While many butter tart purists prefer their baked treats without embellishments, roasted pecans or walnuts and/or raisins…
