Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a food processor, pulse 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cold cubed unsalted butter, 3 tbsp powdered sugar, and 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Press the dough into 12 mini tartlet pans or muffin tin cups.
  2. Step 2: Bake the tart shells for 15 minutes until lightly golden around the edges. Remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. Step 3: In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over 3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
  4. Step 4: Spoon the chocolate ganache evenly into the cooled tart shells.
  5. Step 5: Top each tartlet with 2 tbsp toasted sliced almonds and sprinkle 2 tbsp toasted shredded coconut evenly over all.
  6. Step 6: Refrigerate the tartlets for at least 1 hour to set the ganache before serving.
