Today is my DH's 79th birthday. I promised to make butter tarts months ago and didn't get to it until today. I used ready-made frozen pie dough. So much easier than making my own from scratch. The picture is off the internet but it's close to what I made. The top edges are brittle and no doubt will make a mess so instead of cleaning my house BEFORE the family comes over I'll do it tomorrow after we celebrate. I had extra tart shells so I made lemon pie filling ( from a box mix) and if anyone prefers the lemon ones ( or doesn't like raisins)... I find it hard to remember who dislikes what foods so I try to give a choice.
We had his cake on Sunday when some of us were together playing Dominoes so no cake today.
Teacup # 51 is one of a pair.

Oh yum! I love butter tarts. I'm planning to make some for Christmas, and I'll be using the frozen tart shells, too. It makes it so easy! Happy Birthday to your DH.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous cup...make me think of the British tea time. Especially serving tarts along with tea.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your dear hubby!!!
Oh, I do want to make those, GM! Just wrote "frozen pie dough" on my grocery list :) They look delicious. I need to find a recipe. Can you share your recipe tomorrow, please? I know yours will be excellent!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your husband!
ReplyDeleteGosh, I have never seen these tarts before, and now I am itching to make them. I think the refrigerated pie dough tastes great! Better than many a homemade crust, to be frank! I love teacup 51. The handle is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your spouse and those tarts do look good.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your husband! I have never heard of butter tart… they look good
ReplyDeleteYUM. I need to make a batch of tarts. But girl...those cocoa bombs have kept me busy. LOL! Love the teacup. You have such a beautiful collection. Merry Christmas to you and happy birthday to your DH. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteThe tarts look yummy! Happy birthday to your husband!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of using store bought dough, it taste as good or better than what I could make. We used to place dominoes all the time, somewhere along the way we just don't anymore. Have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your husband! The tarts look great!

Happy birthday to your hubby! The tarts sound delicious. I made lemon bars yesterday for my grands and only Audrey liked them. (And me.) Too bad! I was hoping they would eat them all so I wouldn't be tempted! :) Merry Christmas to you and yours!
