2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For filling:
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chocolate stout, preferably double chocolate stout (to measure, tilt cup and pour it slowly down side of a liquid measuring cup, then let foam dissipate or skim it off)
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 ounces good-quality bittersweet chocolate (60 - 62% cacao), finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces chocolate wafers (35 wafers), broken into pieces
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
Pinch of salt
2 1/2 cups milk
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate (preferably 61 percent cacao), chopped
Pinch of coarse salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or bourbon
1 cup heavy cream, chilled
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Press mixture firmly into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch fluted tart pan. Bake until crust is fragrant, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Make the filling: In a medium saucepan, heat milk, egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch over medium-high, whisking occasionally, until simmering. Reduce heat to medium and add chocolate. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until bubbling and thick, 4 to 5 minutes (about 2 minutes after it comes to a boil). Add salt and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla or bourbon. Let cool about 10 minutes, whisking 2 or 3 times.
  • Pour custard into baked and cooled crust. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly on surface of custard. Refrigerate until filling is firm, 4 hours or up to 1 day.

Categories     Desserts

Time 3h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 ⅔ cups all purpose flour
½ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ¼ sticks unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
1 large egg yolk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon water, ice cold
9 oz good quality bittersweet chocolate
1 ¼ cups heavy cream
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ sheets gelatin sheet
1 cup ice water
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons water, room temperature
3 tablespoons unsweetened natural cocoa powder
3 tablespoons heavy cream
flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
whipped cream, for serving
1 tart pan, 9 in
pie weight, dried beans, or uncooked rice

Steps:

  • Make the crust: In a food processor, combine the flour, powdered sugar, and salt and pulse to incorporate. Add the butter, a few cubes at a time, and pulse until broken down to pea-sized pieces.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, vanilla, and water. Slowly drizzle the egg yolk mixture into the food processor and pulse until the dough starts to come together but is not yet fully incorporated, 2-3 minutes.
  • Turn the dough out onto a sheet of plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and shape into a 1-inch-thick disc. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to 2 days.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easy rolling.
  • Place the dough disc between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll out to an 11-inch circle about ⅛ inch thick, starting from the center and rolling away from you and rotating the dough 90° every few rolls to ensure even thickness. If the edges of the dough crack, use the rolling pin to bring them back together. If the dough softens too much, refrigerate for a few minutes to re-solidify.
  • Carefully roll the dough onto the rolling pin, then unroll over a 9-inch tart pan and gently press against the bottom and sides. Roll the rolling pin over the pan to trim the edges of the crust flush with the pan. Patch any holes around the edges with the excess dough. Use a fork to prick holes all over the crust. Freeze for about 20 minutes, until the dough is firm.
  • Arrange an oven rack in the center position. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Crumple a sheet of parchment paper in your hands, then unwrap and press flush against the crust, covering the edges to prevent them from burning. Fill the center of the crust with pie weights and spread in an even layer to cover the entire surface.
  • Bake the crust for 15 minutes, until partially baked and the parchment no longer sticks to the dough. Carefully remove the parchment and pie weights. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking for another 15 minutes, until the bottom of the crust is starting to brown. Carefully transfer the tart pan to a wire rack and let cool for 30 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  • Make the filling: Chop the chocolate.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and salt. Warm over medium-low heat until simmering gently around the edges of the pot, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, add the chopped chocolate, and stir to combine. Cover for 5 minutes, then uncover and whisk until chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla. Slowly pour a bit of the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, to temper, then pour in the remaining chocolate mixture and whisk to combine.
  • Strain the filling through a fine-mesh sieve into a spouted measuring cup, then pour into the cooled tart shell and spread evenly with an offset spatula.
  • Bake the tart for 25-30 minutes, until the filling is set and the surface is glossy.
  • Carefully remove the tart from the oven and transfer to the wire rack to cool for at least 45 minutes.
  • Make the mirror glaze: In a small bowl, soak the gelatin sheets in the ice water to bloom, about 5 minutes.
  • In a small pot, combine the sugar and room temperature water and bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the pot from the heat and sift in the cocoa powder. Stir to combine.
  • In another small pot, heat the cream over medium-low heat until starting to simmer. Slowly pour the hot cream into the cocoa mixture and gently whisk to combine. Be careful not to incorporate any air.
  • Once the gelatin has softened, lift the sheets from the cold water and wring out any excess water. Add the gelatin sheets to the cocoa and cream mixture and stir until fully dissolved.
  • Let the glaze cool until the temperature reaches between 90-110°F (32-43°C), or warm to the touch but no longer hot.
  • Strain the glaze through a fine-mesh sieve into a spouted measuring cup. Pour the glaze over the tart, using an offset spatula to cover evenly. Refrigerate the tart for about 1 hour to allow the mirror glaze to set.
  • Generously sprinkle flaky sea salt over the tart, then slice and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
  • Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE CHESTNUT TART WITH RUM WHIPPED CREAM



Chocolate Chestnut Tart With Rum Whipped Cream image

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling dough
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch processed cocoa powder
Fine sea salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pound or a 14 8/10-ounce jar roasted, peeled chestnuts
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup granulated sugar
Fine sea salt
1 vanilla bean, split
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons rum, to taste
1 ounce bittersweet chocolate, for shaving

Steps:

  • Prepare the dough: in the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the flour, confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and a pinch of salt. Pulse in the butter, egg yolk and vanilla until dough just comes together. Form into a disk. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • When you are ready to bake the crust, heat the oven to 325 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into an 11-inch circle. Press into a 9-inch tart pan and trim the edges. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork; chill for 20 minutes or until firm. Cover the dough with a sheet of aluminum foil and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until pastry is dry and firm, about 15 minutes longer. Cool completely.
  • Make the filling: in a saucepan over medium heat, combine the chestnuts, milk, cream, sugar and a pinch of salt. Use the tip of a knife to scrape the vanilla seeds into the pot and then drop in the pod. Simmer until chestnuts are very soft, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool. Discard vanilla pod.
  • Purée the filling in a food processor until very smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape into the tart shell and smooth the top.
  • Make the whipped cream: whip the cream and confectioners' sugar until thickened. Whip in the rum. Spread the whipped cream over the chestnut filling. Using a vegetable peeler, shave chocolate curls over the top. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
