Chocolate Raspberry Tart
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons raspberry jam
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine 1 1/4 cups of flour, 1/4 cup of cocoa powder, 1/4 cup of sugar, 1/2 cup of cold unsalted butter pieces, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1/4 cup of cold water and pulse until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the pan and trim any excess. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and line with parchment paper. Fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper, and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Let the crust cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Place 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl and pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let it sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth. Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled tart crust and spread it evenly. Arrange 1 1/2 cups of fresh raspberries on top of the ganache.
- In a small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of raspberry jam over low heat until melted. Brush the melted jam over the raspberries. Refrigerate the tart for at least 1 hour to set the ganache.
- Before serving, dust the tart with 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar. Slice and enjoy!
