Tarte au Sucre
Tarte au Sucre is a traditional French-Canadian sugar pie originating from Quebec. This rich and sweet dessert consists of a flaky pastry crust filled with a smooth, creamy sugar-based filling. The mixture of brown sugar, cream, and butter creates a velvety texture and a deep, caramel-like flavor. This classic dessert is a staple in many Quebec households and is often served during the winter months.
