3/4 cup soft butter
3/4 cup brown sugar light pack

This pastry takes a while to bake tarts 35-40
Pies 45 approximately I usually wait until pastry is light brown the butter will bubble from pastry when cool you can freeze the tarts for a bit however they are best on the same day I have kept a pie for a few days in the refrigerator the pastry becomes almost candy when cold this is the same recipe for my smoked butter tarts this time I made them into a pecan pie so I have reposted and expanded the recipe
