Ingredients
For crust:
- 1 cup chocolate graham cracker crumbs
- 4 tablespoons 1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup sugar
For filling:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces Ghirardelli 60% cacao bittersweet chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1-1/2 cups sugar adjust amount depending on how sweet you like it.

For glaze:
- 4 tablespoon heavy cream
- 3-1/2 ounces Ghirardelli 60% cacao bittersweet chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons light corn syrup

Instructions
- Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Stir together crushed chocolate graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture evenly onto bottom and sides of each tart pan. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the crust is firm. Cool on a baking rack for 15 to 20 minutes
- Filling:
- In a small saucepan, over medium heat, bring cream to a boil, then pour over chocolate in a bowl and stir until smooth. Let cool for a few minutes. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, beat together eggs, vanilla, and salt. Stir into cooled, melted chocolate.
- Pour filling into cooled crust. Bake until filling is set but center is still a little giggly, about 20 minutes. (Center will continue to set as tart cools.) Cool completely in pan on a baking rack for about 1 hour.
- Glaze:
- Bring cream to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in chocolate until smooth. Stir in corn syrup, and then warm water. Pour glaze evenly onto tart. Let stand until glaze is set, about 1 hour.
