This Canuck approves this recipe!👍 The holidays always means butter and mincemeat tarts. So glad you did this one! I knew the recipe was old but not that old. Thanks for the research and great you brought a bit of Canada back to Japan. 🇨🇦 🇯🇵
Kevin!! Ohayogozaimasu!! I’ve missed watching your videos! These Canuck Christmas Butter Tarts look devine! I love how you use icing sugar for dusting-ingenious!! This recipe is going to be saved to my “Kuma’s Kitchen Favs.” I’m looking for desserts to add to my families’ Oshogatsu food table, so thank you for sharing!!
Totally agree. Wish I could get the leg here... and had a big enough oven. My Mom sometimes made a whole leg of lamb. I have a photo of me at six years old, out on the balcony of our house in Switzerland, gnawing on the bone of a full leg.
Sorry. The site has been gone for over a year. Couldn't afford to keep it hosted. I have the recipe in the Dessert recipe booklet on Patreon, but not on this computer. Remind me tomorrow and I cen get it off my other computer.

I love the way you give multiple units of measure, mm, inches, fahrenheit and celsius, great for audiences from various places!
Yeah, I like to make it easy for people. Glad you like it.

Some Canuckism will never leave me. As for the research, I ran across that info about 10 years ago and was also surprised.
@@KumasKitchen Good to know! You're an honorary Canuck! 👍
eh?
@@KumasKitchen That is an excellent "eh". 😀 I can hear a bit of a Canadian accent when you speak.
I was recently told I still sound Canadian when I say "about."
Love the recipe and just noticed the cordless mixer that's handy ... I want one for Christmas lol
Unfortunately, the mixer is not cordless - just the cord drops behind the counter. Hope you get one for Christmas.
What a great little snack.. 😋
I hope you and your family have a great Christmas
You too. Merry Christmas.
I am making these as I type . I can’t wait !!!
Ah. Sorry, missed this comment. Hope you enjoyed them.
Delicious and beautiful
I'm looking forward to winter - so I can make again.
I had those once at a hotel in Utah, I think the owners were mormons originally from Canada.
Could well be. I went to college with a couple of brothers in Canada who were mormons. They have a tie with Utah and I thin one returned to there.

Great to have you back, Mindy's Mom. One more cookie recipe coming before Christmas.
Kuma's Kitchen.....Awesome!!
Looks solid brother.. keep em coming
Thanks, Noah. Will do.
@@KumasKitchen no worries buddy how about making a roast leg of lamb hahhaa
You get me a leg of lamb and I'm happy to do it up.
@@KumasKitchen Leg of lamb is always underrated in my opinion way better than turkey sometimes hahhahah
Totally agree. Wish I could get the leg here... and had a big enough oven. My Mom sometimes made a whole leg of lamb. I have a photo of me at six years old, out on the balcony of our house in Switzerland, gnawing on the bone of a full leg.
I noticed you didnt use lemon juice to the tart mixture, what does lemon actually do to help? Thanks.
Lemon juice can give a kick in flavour. I've never needed it in this recipe.
Your website seems to be down or no longer available. I was hoping for the recipe for these tarts. Any chance you could post them under the video? 🐀
Sorry. The site has been gone for over a year. Couldn't afford to keep it hosted. I have the recipe in the Dessert recipe booklet on Patreon, but not on this computer. Remind me tomorrow and I cen get it off my other computer.
@@KumasKitchen That would be really appreciated. Not sure how to give you my email without ending up flooded with spam CROFL 🐀

@@KumasKitchen Thank you. Very much appreciated.
I use grass-butter for that^^ plantbase
Yeah, wish I could get that here. Not yet.
I wish you would have cut the tart open in half to show us the yummy runny insides
Sorry.
Lol nice! I was going to say...I thought you didn't like Vancouver Canucks lol
LOL. Nothing against the Canucks. I just like to make fun of them.
Why not just use melted butter for the filling , a lot less work.
You mean instead of creaming it? Could do. Unlike making cookies, it wouldn't make a difference.
@@KumasKitchen I made butter tarts for years , I always use melted butter in the filling. Way easier.
Not walnuts... use currents, raisins,or pecans... I'm Canadian eh :)
LOL. eh.
I've never seen butter tarts made without corn syrup before....
I had to adapt a long time ago - no corn syrup in Japan. Try this and see if you like it. IMO, healthier than corn syrup.
@@KumasKitchen I'll give it a whirl!!
