Chocolate tart
The chocolate mousse turned out very well. You can find the
recipe of chocolate mousse in my previous post. The mousse was a very simple
recipe and often tried in western homes.
This time I tried using the left over chocolate mousse for
my new experiment. Though it’s similar to the recipe of chocolate tart but with
a different tweak, hence I decided to keep the name as chocolate tart only.
Here is the recipe,
What you need:
Refined wheat flour 250gm
Salted butter 150gms
Dry fruits : I chose
walnuts and almonds 50gms ( one can use hazelnuts, groundnuts)
Sugar 5tsf
For frosting: look into the mousse recipe
Knead the flour with melted butter. Wrap it in plastic and
refrigerate for 1hr. After an hour on the platform, roll out the flour. In the
cupcake mould (preferably tin, not silicon) Roll and trim the dough to make a circle large enough to fit
the tart moulds.
In a preheated oven, bake the moulds on 180C for half an
hour. (till light golden brown).
Prepare the filling: in a pan, heat the sugar till it starts
to crystallize. Add the crushed dry fruits and mix properly. A quick way is
that one can use the regular dryfruit chikki available in Indian markets. One
can take a slab of chikki and crush it and directly use it.
Fill the mixture into the baked tart. In a pipe fill the
chocolate mousse and use it as frosting.
