Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup ground almonds, and 3 tbsp powdered sugar. Cut in 7 tbsp cold cubed unsalted butter using your fingers or a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add 1 large egg yolk and mix until dough forms a ball. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Roll out chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness and press into a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Trim edges and prick the bottom with a fork. Bake for 18-20 minutes until crust is golden and firm. Let cool completely.
  3. Step 3: While crust cools, heat 3/4 cup heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over 7 oz chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir gently until smooth and glossy.
  4. Step 4: Stir 2 tbsp unsalted butter and 1 tsp rose water into the chocolate ganache until fully incorporated and silky. Pour ganache into the cooled tart shell and smooth the top.
  5. Step 5: Refrigerate tart for at least 2 hours until ganache is set. Before serving, garnish with a few edible rose petals if desired.
