Chocolate Tart

Ingredients

– 1 cup flour
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1/2 cup cocoa powder
– 100g cold butter
– 1 egg
– A generous pinch of salt

Method:
1- Add the flour, cocoa powder, sugar and salt to a food processor.
2- Cut the cold butter to cubes and add them into the processor, and start pulsing.
3- Add in the egg and pulse until the mixture starts looking like wet sand. If you take a portion into the palm of your hands and squeeze, a ball of dough should form.
4- Form a ball and wrap it with cling film. Refrigerate for an hour. If you’re in a rush, you can skip this step.
5- Grease a baking tin of your choice and press the dough into it. Form a flat base and push some to the side to create an even rim around the tin.
6- Bake at 190C for 20 minutes. The tart is baked when it’s no longer glossy. Take it out before it fully dries out.
7- Allow to cool completely at room temperature before tilting it out.

8- For the filling, make some ganache by stirring equal parts of chocolate and hot whipping cream. Allow to cool in the fridge.
9- Take half of the cooled ganache and whip it up using a hand blender or a stand mixer until it fluffs up into a frosting.
10- Place it into a piping bag and fill the tarts.
11- Pipe the other half of the ganache as it is (un-whipped), and decorate as desired!
