Ingredients
Chocolate Tartlets:
- 2 cups flour
- ¼ cup dark cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter , cold
- 1 egg
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
Toppings:
- Fluer de sel
- Caramel sauce
- Melted chocolate
- festive sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat this oven to 350°F.
- In a food processor, combine the flour, dark cocoa powder, and granulated sugar. Pulse a few times to mix.
- Add the cold butter and pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Add the egg and pulse until the dough just comes together. If needed, add 1 tablespoon of cold water to help bind the dough.
- Divide the mixture evenly among 6 small tartlet pans. Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom and sides of each pan to form a crust. Trim any excess around the edges.
- Prick the bottoms of the tart shells with a fork then fill with parchment paper and pie weights to prevent puffing. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until set. Allow to cool completely.
- Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer (do not boil).
- Remove from heat and pour over the chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
- Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled tart shells, filling them just below the rim. Smooth the tops with a spatula if necessary.
- Refrigerate the tartlets for at least 1 hour, or until the filling is set. Serve chilled, garnished with leftover chocolate drizzle, whipped cream, berries, caramel sauce, sprinkles, melted chocolate or a pinch of fluer de sel, if desired.
