Best English Butter Tarts Recipes
GEORGINA'S TRUE ENGLISH BUTTER TARTS
Butter tarts are a British staple. These English ones have been in my family long enough that we don't know the origin. They're fantastic with a sweet, homemade crust, but are my favourite treat to whip up quickly when I have shells pre-made. A fantastic winter or Christmas treat, they're delicious with warm cider.

ENGLISH BUTTER TARTS
This is a recipe my mother had in Scotland. I have saved it since I was a teenager because the tarts are so good.
