Barefoot Contessa's Brownie Tart image

From Barefoot in Paris, 2004. This dessert is very elegant and rich. If you don't have a tart pan, use a springform pan or even a pie plate--which is what Ina used when she made it on her cooking show.

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 extra-large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 -3 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Grease and flour a 9-inch tart pan with removable sides.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a bowl set over simmering water.
  • Add 2 cups of the chocolate chips, remove from the heat, and stir until the chocolate melts.
  • Set aside to cool completely.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs, sugar, coffee, and vanilla on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Stir in the cooled chocolate.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, 1 cup of the chocolate chips, and the walnuts.
  • Fold the flour mixture into the batter until just combined.
  • Pour into the pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center is puffed (the top may crack).
  • The inside will still be very soft.
  • Cool to room temperature before removing the sides of the tart pan.
  • Melt the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips with the heavy cream and drizzle on the tart.
