Strawberry Chocolate Tart
Strawberry Chocolate Tart
Ingredients for Crust:
- Flour 1 cup
- Sugar 3 tbsp
- Salt 1/4 tsp
- Walnuts 1/3 cup
- Chilled unsalted butter 1/2 cup
- Egg yolks 2
- Dark chocolate (chopped) 2 oz
Filling:
Method:
- Combine flour, sugar and salt in processor and mix. Add walnuts; process until chopped. Add butter and mix in until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add yolks and process just until moist clumps form. Gather dough into ball; flatten to disk. Wrap in plastic and chill 30 minutes. Butter 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Roll out dough between sheets of greaseproof paper to 11-inch round. Peel off top sheet of paper. Transfer crust to prepared pan, pressing dough firmly to fit pan. Discard paper. Trim edges of crust. Freeze crust 15 minutes. Bake at 180 degrees C or until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool completely on rack. When cool, brush the base with melted chocolate. Set aside.
- For Filling: Heat cream over low heat until tiny bubbles appear around edges. Remove from heat. Add chocolate and stir until melted. Cool until mixture is at room temperature and beginning to thicken. Pour chocolate filling into crust. Refrigerate until filling is set. Arrange strawberries cut side down in concentric circles on top of the filling. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 1 hour.
