Separately place sugar in a pan and on very slow heat let it caramalise. Once the sugar is light golden remove from fire and add butter and mix quickly. Now fold in the nuts. Adding butter to sugar makes it gooey and easy to fold. Spoon this mixture into the tarts. Serve these beautiful tarts at room temp. Do not refrigerate. |
