Chocolate Ganache Pumpkin Tart image

I love the flavor combination of spiced pumpkin and chocolate, which inspired me to create this chocolate pumpkin tart. Sometimes I like to sprinkle chopped crystallized ginger over the chocolate ganache for extra flavor and texture. -Bernice Janowski, Stevens Point, Wisconsin

The tart was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. The chocolate ganache was rich and creamy, but the pumpkin filling was a bit too bland. The crust was also very good.

I'm not usually a fan of pumpkin pie, but this tart changed my mind. The chocolate ganache was the perfect complement to the pumpkin filling, and the crust was perfectly flaky. I'll definitely be making this again!
