My family really loved these tasty little choccy tarts, I found them rather moreish too, they are very naughty but very, very nice!
So simple to bake, I used pre made pastry which saves time and is just as good as homemade in my opinion.
To bake a batch of a dozen tarts you will need to gather together the following ;
Ingredients
13oz / 375g ready rolled puff pastry
5oz / 140g plain chocolate
10fl oz / 300mls double cream
2oz / 55g caster sugar
4 egg yolks
Toffee sauce
Icing sugar to dust
Whipping or clotted cream to serve
Method
Grease a 12 hole muffin tin.
Cut out 12 large circles from the pastry using a mince pie cutter.
Lay the pastry circles carefully in the tin holes.
Place the tin in the fridge and leave to chill.
Preheat the oven to 200C, 400F, Gas 6.
Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water.
Allow to cool a little then stir in the cream.
Beat the sugar and egg yolks together until creamy and stir into the chocolate mixture.
Remove the muffin tin from the fridge and add a teaspoon of toffee sauce to each tart base.
Fill the tarts with the chocolate mixture until close to the top but not overflowing.
Bake in the centre of the oven for around 20 minutes until the tops are set.
Carefully remove from the tin and allow to cool.
Dust with a little icing sugar and serve with cream.
Enjoy!
