For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter in the filling. Toast the pecans lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. If you prefer a less chewy texture, reduce the amount of brown sugar slightly. Store the butter tart squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
