Time 9h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

5.25 ounces dark chocolate, at least 78 percent cacao
2 cups graham cracker crumbs, preferably organic
1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter, preferably grass-fed, at room temperature
1 envelope (2 1/2 teaspoons) unflavored gelatin
1 cup light coconut milk
3 1/2 cups (about 18 ounces) strawberries, preferably organic, stems removed
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
One 8-ounce package light cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 to 4 halved strawberries, preferably organic, with greens intact
1/4 cup blueberries
1/4 cup blackberries
1/4 cup raspberries
1 tablespoon chopped hazelnuts

Steps:

  • For the dark chocolate graham cracker crust: Break the chocolate into pieces and place in the bowl of a food processor along with the graham cracker crumbs. Blend together until combined. Cut the stick of butter into several pieces and add to the food processor. Blend again until the mixture starts to clump together and has the consistency of wet sand.
  • Dump the crumb mixture into a 10-inch round deep tart pan with 2-inch sides and a removable bottom. Press the crumbs into the bottom and towards the sides of the pan using the bottom of a glass. Then press down from the top with your thumb along the lip of the crust and press against the wall of the crust to create a scalloped edge. Gently scrape away the inside of the tart walls with a spoon while still pressing down from the top so that the crust is consistently 1/2-inch to 2/3-inch thick all the way around. Press and smooth the crumbs across the bottom of the pan. Refrigerate the crust for about 1 hour.
  • For the strawberry smoothie mousse filling: Sprinkle the gelatin over the coconut milk in a medium microwave-safe bowl and let sit 1 minute. Microwave on high for 40 seconds, then stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  • Pulse the strawberries, 1 tablespoon sugar and the coconut gelatin mixture in a food processor or blender until the berries are pureed. Add the cream cheese, Greek yogurt and vanilla extract and continue blending until smooth. Taste and add another tablespoon of sugar if desired, then scrape down the sides and blend again. Pour into the prepared crust and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • For the decorative topping: Gently push the strawberries decoratively into the semi-gelled filling, then press in the blueberries, blackberries and raspberries to make a pretty pattern. Sprinkle the hazelnuts over the surface. Refrigerate until set, 4 to 6 more hours or overnight.
  • To unmold the pie, carefully press up from the bottom of the tart pan, then slice with a sharp knife (the crust will be very firm) and serve.

MIXED FRUIT TART

Categories     dessert

Time 1h55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
4 cups mixed berries, such as raspberries, blackberries and halved strawberries
1/2 cup apricot preserves

Steps:

  • For the crust: In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the salt, egg and cream; beat until incorporated. Add the flour and beat until a dough comes together. Form the dough into a disc and then press it evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; if necessary, use a piece of plastic wrap to help keep the dough from sticking. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour, or freeze for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the tart crust with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake until the edges of the crust look set and just barely golden, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and pie weights, and continue to bake until the crust is golden brown all over, about 20 minutes more. Cool completely.
  • For the filling: In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla, and beat with an electric mixer until soft and very creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cream and continue beating until the mixture holds stiff peaks, stopping occasionally to scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the cooled tart shell and smooth with an offset spatula. Top with the berries.
  • Combine the apricot preserves and a splash of water in a small bowl and microwave until warm, about 45 seconds. Strain through a sieve into another bowl. Gently brush or spoon the apricot glaze over the berries.
  • Serve the tart immediately, or refrigerate for up to 3 hours.
