Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cut a 3/4-inch wide strip off each side of the pastry and reserve. Roll out the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface to a 10-inch square. Brush the edges of the square with the egg. Working with 1 strip at a time, stand the strips along the edges of the pastry square and crimp where they meet. You want to create a shallow box, where the pastry square is the base and the 4 strips are the walls. Overlap the strips at the corners, stretching them if necessary to complete the walls of the box. Brush the border with the egg. Pierce the center of the pastry all over with fork. Bake until the pastry is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream until soft peaks. With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks. Add the liqueur and beat until just well blended; be careful not to overmix or the whipped cream will turn into a buttery consistency and start to separate. Using a large spatula, fold in the nuts. Spoon the cream mixture into the prepared pastry crust. Arrange the berries over the cream. Sift the cocoa powder over and serve.
- NOTE: You can use any fruit that's in season (orange segments, berries, plums, bananas, grapes). Blueberries make a good substitute for the raspberries, and sliced peaches or nectarines are delicious as well.

Steps:
- First, make the pastry by mixing the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cocoa powder and salt) in a food processor then add the butter and pulse until you get a fine breadcrumb texture. Add the egg yolk, pulse again to mix then add a little water gradually and pulse so that the dough comes together in large clumps.
- Bring the dough together into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap/cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes - this helps to avoid the pastry shrinking when you bake it.
- While the pastry is cooling, make the filling by melting the butter in a small pan until just starting to smell nutty and light brown in color. Remove form the heat and melt the chocolate with the residual heat from the pan and allow to cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, sugar, cardamon, egg and vanilla. Add the butter-chocolate mixture and mix well. Alternatively, you can just add the almond flour etc to the chocolate-butter mixture once it is lukewarm.
- Once pastry has almost finished cooling time, preheat the oven to 375F/190C.
- Roll out the pastry to around 1/8in/2-3mm thick and line 4 small tart moulds. Blind bake the pastry (by lining with parchment paper and filling with baking beans) for 15 mins until starting to dry.
- Remove the parchment paper and beans, allow the pastry to cool slightly then put some of the filling in each and spread carefully across the bottom. Press some raspberries, open side down into the filling (as many as you like, but around 6 per tart works well) then bake for around 30 minutes until the filling looks like it is fairly dry and feels springy-firm rather than soft. Serve warm or cold. You can chill and keep any leftover in the fridge for a day or two.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Line the bases of two 23cm cake tins with baking parchment. Melt the chocolate and butter in the microwave; leave to cool. Stir in the vanilla and coffee powder.
- Whizz the almonds in a food processor until finely ground, then add flour and salt, and transfer to a bowl. Whisk the eggs with an electric mixer for 5 mins, until doubled in volume. Slowly add the sugar, whisk for 1 min more. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture until just combined. Sprinkle over half the flour mixture and fold in, then the other half. The mixture will be rather runny.
- Divide between the two tins and bake for about 15 mins until a skewer comes out with a few crumbs attached - the sponges should be slightly undercooked. Cool in tin, then turn out onto a wire rack.
- Choose the less perfect of the two, then set it on a serving plate. Mash 12 raspberries and stir in the jam. Spread on the base, then top with the other cake.
- For the glaze, bring the cream to the boil, pour it over the chocolate and whisk until smooth. Leave for a few mins until starting to thicken, then spread over the top and sides to cover. Decorate with raspberries. Chill for up to 24 hrs. Remove from fridge 1 hr before serving, dust with icing sugar, and serve with vanilla cream.

RASPBERRY TART WITH ALMOND PASTRY
This tasty tart is the perfect summer dessert for a crowd

Yield Cuts into 10 slices
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Make the pastry by tipping all the ingredients, except the yolk, into a food processor and pulsing to the texture of breadcrumbs. Add the yolk, then pulse until it all comes together to form a soft pastry. The pastry will be too soft to roll out, so press it evenly into a loose-based 25cm tart tin until the pastry comes up above the edges of the tin. Rest in the freezer for at least 20 mins.
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Line the tart case with baking parchment and baking beans, then place on a baking sheet and bake for 20 mins until the edges are starting to brown. Remove the beans and paper, then continue to cook for 10 mins until biscuity. Leave to cool, trim the edges with a knife, then carefully remove from the tart tin.
- To make the filling, whisk the crème fraîche with the sugar, vanilla, lemon juice and zest until thick. Spread over the bottom of the tart case, then meticulously place the raspberries on top in concentric circles. Meanwhile, heat up jam in the microwave or in a pan with 2tbsp water until bubbling. Push the glaze through a sieve into a bowl, then paint it over the raspberries with a pasty brush. Bring the whole tart to the table and serve in slices.

Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your tart. Look for chocolate that has a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Temper your chocolate. This will help to give it a smooth, glossy finish. To temper chocolate, melt it slowly over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring constantly. Once the chocolate is melted, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly. Then, stir in a small amount of cold chocolate until the mixture reaches the desired temperature.
- Use fresh raspberries. Fresh raspberries will give your tart the best flavor. If you can't find fresh raspberries, you can use frozen raspberries that have been thawed.
- Don't overbake the tart. The tart should be baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. If you overbake the tart, the crust will be dry and crumbly and the filling will be overcooked.
- Let the tart cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to develop.
Conclusion:
This chocolate almond and raspberry tart is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of chocolate, almonds, and raspberries is a classic combination that is sure to please everyone. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and its tart raspberry filling, this tart is sure to be a hit.
