CHOCOLATE HONEY ALMOND TART



Chocolate Honey Almond Tart image

The tart is decadently chocolaty and very rich. There's a buttery, chocolate graham cracker and almond crust that's topped with a silky smooth chocolate and honey filling. The tart tastes like you slaved over it but it's incredibly fast and easy to make and it's almost no-bake. The crust is made in the food processor in two minutes flat before baking briefly and then topping it with the filling. Making the filling is as easy as pouring a warm cream and honey mixture over chocolate chips and whisking. It's almost like making ganache and tastes like creamy, honey-spiked ganache. Use heavy cream complete so that the filling sets up. I recommend overnight, which makes the tart an easy and impressive make-ahead dessert for parties.

Time 17m

Number Of Ingredients 7

9 full-size chocolate graham crackers (about 5 to 5 1/2 ounces)
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
1/4 cup (half of 1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and softened
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Note - I wouldn't use a 9-inch round pie dish because I think it will be slightly too shallow; a 9-inch square pan may work but I prefer the ease and cosmetic result of a springform pan.
  • To the canister of a food processor, add the graham crackers, almonds, and process on high speed until broken down into fine crumbs, about 1 minute. Tips - I used Honey Maid Chocolate Graham Crackers and in a standard box there are three packets of 9 crackers each. Before adding the graham crackers to the food processor I beat the sealed packet a few times with the back of a table knife to break up the crackers and help the food processor along.
  • Add the butter and process on high speed until incorporated and crumbs are well-moistened, about 1 minute.
  • Turn mixture out into prepared pan and hard-pack with the back of a spatula to form an even, smooth, flat crust layer. Bake for 12 minutes. Allow to cool on a rack for about 15 minutes before adding the filling.
  • After crust has cooled, to a medium bowl add the chocolate chips; set aside.
  • To a 2-cup glass measuring cup or microwave-safe bowl, add the cream, honey, and heat for 1 minute on high power.
  • Stop, whisk to combine, return measuring cup to microwave, and heat for 45 to 60 seconds, or just under a boil; keep a close eye on it since all microwaves vary and you don't want it to boil. Whisk briefly to combine.
  • Pour cream-honey mixture over chocolate chips and whisk until silky smooth and combined.
  • Whisk in the salt.
  • Pour chocolate mixture over the crust, smooth the top lightly with a spatula or offset knife, cover pan with plasticwrap, and place pan in fridge for at least 5 hours to set (overnight is recommened) before removing from springform pan and slicing and serving. Tart will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 1 week.

ARMAGNAC CHOCOLATE ALMOND TART



Armagnac Chocolate Almond Tart image

I am a pecan pie lover...this is my twist on pecan pie. I use almonds instead of pecans and golden syrup instead of corn syrup. Both chocolate and Armagnac make this tart really special. Don't skip on toasting the almonds, it brings out the nuttiness of the pie. - Phoebe Saad, Framingham, Massachusetts

5 graham crackers (about 2 3/4 ounces)

HONEY, ORANGE & ALMOND TART



Honey, orange & almond tart image

Make the most of the sweet, natural flavour of honey in this honey, orange & almond tart. Serve warm or at room temperature with crème fraîche or ice cream

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

250g plain flour
2 tbsp icing sugar
150g butter, cold, cubed
1 orange, zested
2 egg yolks
100g butter, softened
50g golden caster sugar
50g set honey, plus 2 tbsp for the glaze
50g ground almonds
1 orange, zested and juiced
1 tsp almond extract
2 eggs
50g flaked almonds

Steps:

  • Put the flour in a food processor with a pinch of salt and the icing sugar, and pulse a few times to combine. Add the butter and orange zest, and pulse again until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolks and whizz until it just forms a ball, adding 1 tbsp cold water to bring together if you need to. Wrap and chill for 30 mins.
  • Roll out the rested pastry to 5mm thick and use to line a 20cm fluted tart tin. Chill for 10 mins while you heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
  • Lay a scrunched-up piece of baking parchment in the pastry tin and fill with baking beans. Bake for 10 mins, then remove the paper and beans, and cook for 5 mins until dry and lightly golden. Trim any overhanging pastry with a serrated knife.
  • While the pastry is cooling, make the frangipane. Beat together the butter, sugar and set honey until well combined. Add the ground almonds, orange zest, 2 tbsp of the juice, almond extract and eggs. Beat well to combine (don't worry if the frangipane starts to split slightly, it will be quite loose). Pour into the pastry case, and scatter over the flaked almonds. Bake for 25-30 mins until the filling is set, and springs back when lightly pressed.
  • Warm the remaining orange juice and 2 tbsp honey in a small pan and simmer until it forms a light syrup. Brush over the cooling tart. Serve warm or at room temperature with crème fraîche or ice cream.

ROSEMARY-HONEY ALMOND TART



Rosemary-Honey Almond Tart image

In this stunning tart, a gently set custard studded with sliced almonds is baked in a buttery shortbread crust. It is as fit as a dinner-party dessert as it is daytime sweet to accompany cups of warm tea or coffee. The honey in the custard is steeped with rosemary, but other fresh herbs, such as marjoram, tarragon and thyme, can be substituted to add a nice savory hint to the floral syrup. You can do several steps ahead of time, or the whole tart can be prepared and baked, then cooled, wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Time 3h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons/75 grams cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus more for the pan
1 1/2 cups/205 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling the dough
1/3 cup/63 grams granulated sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup/58 milliliters cold water
1/2 cup/144 grams honey, such as wildflower
6 tablespoons/75 grams unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
1/3 cup/63 grams granulated sugar
4 small rosemary sprigs
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 large egg plus 2 large egg yolks
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/4 cups/156 grams sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Prepare the crust: Generously butter a 10-inch round (3/4- to 1-inch deep) fluted tart pan. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, lemon zest and salt. Working quickly, rub or cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the pieces are the size of small pebbles. (Alternatively, use a food processor to pulse the dry ingredients with the butter.) Add the egg yolks and the cold water. Using your hands, combine just until the dough comes together in clumps. Gather dough into a ball; flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes or up to 1 week (see Tip).
  • While the dough chills, prepare the filling: In a small pot set over medium-low, combine the honey, rosemary sprigs, sugar, butter and salt. Stir frequently until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool for at least 10 minutes. Whisk the egg, yolks and cream in a liquid measuring cup. Remove the rosemary sprigs from the honey and whisk the egg mixture into the honey mixture until fully blended. Stir in the almonds. The filling can be covered and refrigerated for up to a week (see Tip).
  • Using a floured rolling pin, roll out chilled dough between two sheets of parchment paper or on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. To transfer to the tart pan, roll the dough around the rolling pin, then unroll it over the pan without stretching it. Gently press the dough into the fluted sides and, using a pair of kitchen scissors or a sharp knife, trim any overhang to 1/4 inch above the pan. Refrigerate the tart shell until firm, at least 20 minutes. Heat oven to 375 degrees while the dough chills.
  • Line the tart dough with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the crust is lightly browned along the edges and beginning to firm up, about 18 minutes. Remove the pie weights and parchment and bake for another 5 minutes to lightly brown the edges. Press down the bottom surface with the back of a spoon if the crust bubbles. Allow the crust to cool completely before filling. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees.
  • Place the tart pan on a rimmed baking sheet and carefully pour the filling into the cooled tart shell. Bake until the filling is set, deep golden brown and jiggles slowly when the pan is moved back and forth, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the tart completely before slicing. The tart will keep refrigerated for up to 3 days, or can be cooled, wrapped and frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost before serving.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate instead. Just be sure to trim the excess dough around the edges.
  • To make sure the tart is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. It should come out clean when it's done.
  • Let the tart cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the filling to set and the crust to firm up.
  • Garnish the tart with fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special touch.

Conclusion:

This chocolate honey almond tart is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The rich chocolate filling is perfectly complemented by the sweet and nutty honey almond topping. With its easy-to-follow instructions and helpful tips, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
