I just made this recipe for the 3rd time. It's awesome and so easy to make! It's replacing my usual pecan pie this T-day. I add an extra 1/4 cup of nuts - yum.

This recipe deserves 10 stars! The tarts are easy to make and taste heavenly. The recipe for the tart crust is so light and flaky. Thank you so much for sharing it.
