Chess Tarts Recipe
Tagged in CakesDirections
Mix dry ingredients. Cut in the shortening and butter. Combine 5 tablespoons water and the vinegar and add to form dough. If more cold water is needed, add the extra 1 or 2 tablespoons. Use walnut-sized bits of dough and press into greased gem pans (2 inch) or muffin tins to form a shell. Refrigerate a few hours or overnight. Add filling and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. This should make about 22 small tarts or 12 muffin sized tarts.
Pour over nuts and raisins. Bake and remove carefully after 10 minutes.
