Description

An elegant and indulgent tart featuring a crisp almond coconut crust filled with silky rich chocolate ganache, perfectly balancing nutty, sweet, and deep chocolate flavors.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour or finely ground almonds
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a tart pan.
  2. In a bowl, mix almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, melted butter, egg, and shredded coconut until a dough forms.
  3. Press the dough evenly into the tart pan, covering the base and sides.
  4. Bake for 15–18 minutes until lightly golden, then let the crust cool completely.
  5. Heat the cream until warm and pour it over chopped dark chocolate. Let sit for 1 minute.
  6. Stir until smooth, then mix in butter, vanilla extract, and salt.
  7. Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  8. Refrigerate for 2–3 hours until set.
  9. Slice and serve, optionally topped with extra coconut or almonds.

Notes

  • Add a caramel layer under the chocolate for extra richness.
  • Use milk chocolate for a sweeter, lighter version.
  • Top with fresh berries or toasted coconut for added texture.
  • Substitute almonds with hazelnuts or walnuts if desired.
  • Let tart sit at room temperature briefly before serving for best texture.
