Time 5h25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons salted butter
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 Tablespoons sugar
1 egg yolk
1/8 cup ice water
8 ounces + 8 ounces fresh raspberries
1/8 teaspoon lemon juice
12 ounces Semi Sweet Mini Chocolate Chips
1 Tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • To prepare crust, blend together using a food processor or a pastry blender, 1/2 cup cold butter, flour and sugar. Once blended add egg yolk. Mix well. Add ice water and gently mix until mixture comes together. Flour counter, roll out dough and place in a tart pan, making sure to line sides. Place crust in the fridge for 1 hour to firm up. We want the butter cold and hard - it will help with shrinkage during baking. Once crust is ready to bake, preheat oven to 375. Line crust with foil and place dried beans inside the foil. This will help prevent crust from bubbling during baking. Place tart pan on a baking sheet to help with getting in into and out of the oven. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and remove foil and beans carefully. Place crust back in oven and bake 5 minutes more or until crust is a hint of golden. Set aside to cool. As crust is baking, you can make filling. In a small sauce pan, add raspberries and lemon juice. Turn heat to medium and allow berries to cook and release their juice. Mixture will be very thick. After raspberries have cooked approximately 5 minutes and are mush (mix frequently!), remove from heat and strain berries to separate raspberry puree from seeds. Discard seeds and refrigerate puree. It needs to be room temperature or colder. In a new sauce pan filled 1/4 full of water, place a heat proof glass or metal bowl on top. Add chocolate chips,2 Tablespoons butter, brown sugar and heavy whipping cream. Turn heat to medium low. As the bowl heats up the mixture will begin to melt. Carefully stir mixture using an oven mitt to hold the bowl so you don't burn yourself, until mixture is fully melted and blended. Remove from heat and add vanilla. Mix well. Add seedless raspberry puree and mix well. Pour chocolate into pre-baked crust. and place tart into the fridge. Allow to chill for 4 - 24 hours. When chocolate is firm, top with additional raspberries and gently sprinkle with powdered sugar for presentation. Serve immediately.
