Butter Tart Squares



What you need,

For the crust,

1 cup all-purpose flour

¼ cup granulated sugar

½ cup softened butter

In a bowl whisk together the flour and sugar. Cut in the butter using a fork until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Press the dough into a well-greased 9x9 inch pan.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 12-15 minutes, until set and just starting to turn golden brown.


For the filling,

2 tbsp. butter, melted

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1 cup packed brown sugar

½ tsp. baking powder

½ tsp. vanilla

¼ tsp. salt

1 cup raisins

In a large bowl whisk together all the ingredients for the filling until well combined.

Pour over the baked crust and spread into an even layer.

Bake again at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes until the filling is almost set.

Remove from the oven and let the squares cool completely on a wire rack.

Cut into pieces and scarf!
