For Valentine's Day Chocolate Tart
I made this chocolate tart combining tart pastry, my original brownieand ganache cream.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Tart pastry: Bring butter to room temperature. Sift the flour.
* Step 2
Put the butter into a bowl and cream until soft. Add salt and powdered sugar and mix until light and fluffy.
* Step 3
Add the egg yolk and mix well.
* Step 4
Add cake flour, fold lightly in a cutting motion with a scraper and bring it together. Wrap with plastic wrap and rest it in the fridge for 2 hours.
* Step 5
Sandwich the dough in two sheets of cling film, roll out to 3 mm thickness. Press into a tart pan. Cut off the excess dough and pierce with a fork.
* Step 6
Rest for 30 minutes in the fridge. Preheat the oven to 180℃ and bake for 10 minutes.
* Step 7
Filling: Chop the chocolate finely. Combine with the butter and melt in a double broiler.
* Step 8
Add egg yolk, then the sifted cocoa powder and mix well between every addition. Leave the bowl in hot water.
* Step 9
Put the egg white in another bowl, add the sugar in 3 batches while mixing well and make a stiff meringue.
* Step 10
Add the meringue into the chocolate mixture in 3 batches and mix well. Stir well with a whisk when you add the first portion of meringue. Mix well with a rubber spatula to break air bubbles when you add the 2nd and 3rd portions of meringue.
* Step 11
Pour the filling mixture into Step 6 (about 80% full), bake in a preheated oven at 180℃ for 12~15 minutes.
* Step 12
Done. It's puffed up when it's just baked, but flattens when cooled.
* Step 13
Make the ganache cream. Chop the chocolate finely and melt in a double boiler.
* Step 14
Heat heavy cream until it's nearly boiling and add to the bowl of melted chocolate. Put it over a bowl with ice water and whip until stiff peaks form.
* Step 15
When the tart is completely cool, decorate with the ganache cream and fruit.
* Step 16
You can make miniature tarts and they're cute too.
