½ cups all-purpose flour

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened

½ cup granulated sugar

/3 cup brown sugar, packed

large egg

tablespoon vanilla extract

cup corn syrup

½ cups pecans, chopped (or raisins, if preferred)

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking powder

Spread the Base: Evenly spread the dough into the prepared pan, pressing it down to form a smooth base layer. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until just set but not browned. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.

Prepare the Filling: In another bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, remaining brown sugar, and vanilla. Stir in the chopped pecans (or raisins) and mix until well combined.

Assemble: Pour the filling over the slightly cooled base, ensuring it spreads evenly across.

Bake: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and no longer wobbly in the center. The top should be lightly golden.

Cool and Cut: Allow the butter tart squares to cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift them out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into squares for serving.
