Instructions
-
1Make pastry: cut cold butter into flour and salt until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until dough just holds. Disc, wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.
-
2Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll pastry to 3 mm. Cut 12 rounds and press into a standard muffin tin. Refrigerate while preparing filling.
-
3Whisk cannabis-infused butter and brown sugar until combined. Add cream, eggs, vanilla and vinegar. Whisk until smooth — do not overbeat.
-
4Add raisins or pecans to each tart shell if using, then ladle filling to three-quarters full.
-
5Bake 18–20 minutes until pastry is golden and filling is set at the edges but slightly wobbly in the centre.
-
6Cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. The filling firms as it cools. Label before serving.
Pro Tips
- For runny tarts, pull at 16 minutes. For firm tarts, bake the full 20 minutes.
- Weigh each tart's filling with a kitchen scale for consistent dosing.
- One tart is one dose — they are small but very easy to eat more than one. Wait 90 minutes.
