Ingredients:

1 cup dark chocolate
230g
1/2 cup butter
110g
1 yolk
16g
1/3 cup sugar
63g
2 cups all-purpose white wheat flour
250g
1/2 cup powdered sugar
80g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 tbsp water
16g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tart Shell:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and powdered sugar.
- Add the softened butter and mix together until the mixture has a crumbly texture.
- Add the egg yolk, vanilla extract, and water. Mix until a dough forms.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to fit a 9-inch tart pan.
- Carefully transfer the dough to the tart pan and press it evenly into the bottom and up the sides.
- Prick the base of the tart shell with a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Place a piece of parchment paper over the tart shell and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove the parchment paper and weights.
- Continue baking for another 5-7 minutes, or until the tart shell is lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
2. Prepare the Chocolate Filling:
- Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
- Pour the hot cream over the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
3. Assemble the Tart:
- Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled tart shell, spreading it evenly.
- Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate filling is set.
4. Serving:
- Once the tart is set, remove it from the refrigerator.
- Slice and serve at room temperature for the best flavor.
5. Enjoy your Rich Chocolate Tart!

Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is at room temperature before beginning, as this will make it easier to combine with other ingredients.

- Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor and texture in your tart.

- Allow the tart to cool completely before serving to achieve the best consistency of the filling.

- For an added depth of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate mixture.

- Decorate the tart with fresh berries, a dusting of powdered sugar, or grated chocolate for a beautiful presentation.

This rich chocolate tart is a delightful combination of a buttery crust and a smooth, rich chocolate filling. With its perfect balance of sweetness and depth of flavor, this dessert is sure to become a favorite. Enjoy it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to elevate the experience even further. Happy baking!
