Ingredients
- 375g Shortcrust Pastry
- 2 large Eggs
- 175g Muscovado Sugar
- 100g Raisins
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 50g Butter
- 4 tsp Single Cream
- 50g Walnuts
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to fan 170C/ conventional 190C/gas 5.
2
Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface so it’s slightly thinner than straight from the pack.
3
Then cut out 18-20 rounds with a 7.5cm fluted cutter, re-rolling the trimmings.
4
Use the rounds to line two deep 12-hole tart tins (not muffin tins).
5
If you only have a regular-sized, 12-hole tart tin you will be able to make a few more slightly shallower tarts.
6
Beat the eggs in a large container and combine with the rest of the items required except the walnuts.
7
Tip this mixture into a pot and agitate continuously for 3-4 moments until the margarine melts, and the mixture bubbles and starts to thicken.
8
It should be thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
9
Don’t overcook, and be sure to agitate all the time as the mixture can easily char.
10
Remove from the burning up and agitate in the nuts.
11
Spoon the filling into the unbaked tart shells so it’s level with the pastry.
12
cook thoroughly for 15-18 moments until set and pale golden.
13
Leave in the tin to cool for a few moments before lifting out on to a wire rack.
14
offer toasty or cold.
