Chocolate Raspberry Tart
Indulge Mom with this rich and velvety chocolate tart, nestled in a crisp chocolate cookie crust and topped with fresh raspberries. It's decadent, stunning, and surprisingly simple to make—a true showstopper dessert for a special day.
Ingredients
- For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs e.g., Oreo or similar, without filling
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- For the Ganache Filling:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate finely chopped
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Topping:
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- Powdered sugar for dusting optional
- Mint leaves for garnish optional
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Bake for 10 minutes, then cool completely.
- Make ganache: In a small saucepan, heat cream just until it starts to simmer. Pour over chopped chocolate in a bowl. Let sit 2–3 minutes, then stir until smooth. Add vanilla and salt.
- Fill the tart: Pour ganache into cooled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
- Decorate: Arrange fresh raspberries on top. Dust with powdered sugar and add mint leaves if desired.
- Serve: Slice with a warm knife for clean edges.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free cookies in the crust.
Try other fruits like sliced strawberries or blackberries for variation.
Can be made a day ahead—just add berries before serving for freshness.
