Today I started making a chocolate tart it was fun and exciting, in the end it looked fantastic. I hope yours turns out like mine. Now i'm going to tell you the ingredients-
Ingredients:
350g ready prepared shortcrust pastry.
4 table spoons of marmalade.
200g milk chocolate broken into pieces.
2 large eggs beaten.
50g caster sugar.
150ml double cream.
Coco powder for dusting.
Now that's done i'm going to teach you how to make it step by step-
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 190 celseus. Then using a rolling pin, roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use it to line the flan tin. Put it in the fridge for 15 minutes.
Step 2:
Prick the base with a fork, line with baking paper and fill with a weight or scrunched up aluminuim foil. Place on a baking tray and bake on the top shelf of the oven for 15 minutes.
Step 3:
Remove the paper and weight from the case and return it to the oven for a further 5 minutes until golden whilst the pastry is still warm, spread the base with the marmalade.
Step 4:
Reduce the oven to 160 celeseus. Melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl, over a saucepan of simmering water, whilst stirring. Allow to cool slightly.
Step 5:
Place the eggs and sugar into a mixing bowl and whisk until pale and fluffy, pour into the chocolate mixture and stir until combined.
Step 6:
Stir in the cream and pour the mixture into the tart case. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the tart is set.
Step 7:
Remove the tart from the oven, it will continue to set as it cools. Dust with coco powder if you wish.
That's how you make a chocolate tart, this a picture of my finished final product-
