Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 6 tbsp, melted unsalted butter
- 8 oz dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups almond flour and 6 tbsp melted unsalted butter; mix until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to set.
- Step 2: Meanwhile, heat 1/2 cup heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and pour over 8 oz dark chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir gently until smooth and glossy.
- Step 3: Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled almond crust and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until the filling is firm.
- Step 4: Before serving, drizzle 2 tbsp honey over the tart in a decorative pattern for a sweet contrast.
