White Chocolate Pumpkin Caramel Tarts

We are so in the mood for Pumpkins this year. It’s amazing how the colors of fall just warm your heart so much, isn’t it? Then the rain comes in and makes it all fuzzy.

I must be honest we still have warm afternoons and nice cool evenings. But It’s getting cooler and I’m really getting into the fall menu of soups, chili, and warm spices drinks and desserts.

How pretty do these mini tarts looks? I made a selection of these recently when I had guest over. They were so popular I promised my friends that I’d share the recipes with them.  I had to take pictures so I can share them here with you on my blog.  These are White Chocolate Pumpkin Caramel Tarts, Cinnamon Caramel Apple Tarts, and Pumpkin Pie Chocolate Tart.

A Collection of Fall Inspired Mini Tarts

These below are my pumpkin caramel tarts and they are so absolutely delicious. As a friend said they are small, sweet (obviously) and just a single bite of heaven. I can only eat one at a time because they are rich, but my kids? Have to hold their hand and tell.. enough!!

You can honestly make this as one big tart but I love these bite-size pieces. They are so pretty and look so elegant when served on a table for guest. The recipe itself is soooooooooooooo easy!!

I have already shared with you my basic Homemade Caramel Sauce Recipe so this is just the adapted version of that recipe.
