How to make Butter tarts

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare your baking space.

  6. Carefully pour the sweet filling into the chilled tart shells without overflow.
  7. Evenly sprinkle 50 g of raisins on top of the filling in the tart shells.
  8. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the filling bubbles and the edges turn golden brown.
