My husband LOVES butter tarts, and after trying a few versions of the squares I have finally found one that I am happy with! I like the texture, it actually sets so its not so messy to eat and it makes a huge batch, awesome for when you have to bring baking to an event.
Butter Tart Squares
2 c. flour
1 c. butter
1/2 c. sugar
Cut together flour, sugar and butter. Press into jelly roll pan (large cookie sheet). Bake at 350 for 12 minutes.
1/2 c. butter, softened
2 c. brown sugar
4 eggs
4 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
pinch salt
1 1/2 c. raisins
3/4 c. coarsely chopped pecans
Cream butter and sugar. Blend in the eggs, add flour, baking powder, vanilla and salt. Mix until well combined. Stir in raisins and nuts. Pour over hot base, bake for another 20-25 minutes or until top springs back. Cool before slicing.
