Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
¼ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup water
½ cup butter, 1 stick
1 teaspoon instant coffee
1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
⅓ cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 pinch salt
3 large eggs
1 pt fresh raspberry, for serving
powdered sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the tart dough: add the butter to a medium bowl and sift in the powdered sugar through a fine-mesh sieve. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until smooth.
  • Beat the egg and add half at a time to the butter mixture, beating well to incorporate between additions.
  • Sift in the flour and cocoa powder, and add the salt. Using a rubber spatula, mix the dough until the cocoa powder is evenly distributed. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight (if you chill the dough overnight, let it sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before rolling out).
  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Grease a 9-inch (23-cm) tart pan and roll out the chilled dough to an 11-inch (28-cm) circle. Roll the dough around the rolling pin, then unroll the dough over the pan.
  • Press the dough against the bottom and sides of the pan, then use the rolling pin to roll over the top of the pan, cutting off any excess dough (re-roll any excess dough and bake into cookies, if desired). Press the dough gently against the pan once more. Using a folk, prick some holes in the bottom of the crust so it doesn't puff up.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the tart shell from the oven and reduce the temperature to 300˚F (150˚C)
  • Make the filling: in a medium saucepan, heat the pan over high heat. Combine the water and butter, and bring to a boil. Add the instant coffee and stir until dissolved.
  • Add the chocolate, sugar, and vanilla to a medium bowl and pour the hot butter mixture over. Whisk until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is glossy.
  • Add the eggs and whisk well to combine. Pour the filling into the par-baked shell. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until chocolate is mostly set but the center jiggles slightly.
  • Cool the tart for at least 30 minutes, or until cool to touch. Garnish with raspberries and sift powdered sugar over the top. Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!
