These tarts were delicious! I loved the combination of the dark chocolate truffle filling and the flaky crust. They were perfect for a special occasion.

The tarts were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I had some trouble getting the tarts out of the tins without breaking them. I think I should have let them cool for a bit longer before trying to remove them.

These tarts were a bit too rich for me, but they were still very good. The chocolate truffle filling was very dense and decadent, and the crust was a bit too crumbly. I think I would prefer a lighter filling and a crispier crust.

I'm not a fan of dark chocolate, but I really enjoyed these tarts. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was perfectly crispy. I would definitely make them again.
