  • Total Time: 3 hours 41 minutes
  • Yield: 8 slices

Ingredients

  • Crust:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 egg
  • Ganache Filling:
  • 16 oz high-quality milk chocolate (35%-40%), finely chopped
  • 1¼ cups heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1½ teaspoons espresso powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Berry Whipped Cream:
  • 1 cup strawberry and raspberry mix (fresh or frozen)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh strawberries and raspberries for decoration

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust Dough: In a food processor, combine all-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, salt, cold butter, and egg. Pulse until the mixture is crumbly but holds together.
  2. Turn the dough onto a surface, form into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour.
  3. Roll Out & Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll the chilled dough into a 13-inch circle and transfer to an 11-inch tart pan. Press into the bottom and sides, trim excess, and prick the bottom with a fork.
  4. Bake on a sheet pan for 16–18 minutes until lightly browned. Let cool completely.
  5. Make the Ganache: Place chopped chocolate in a bowl. Heat cream to a simmer and pour over chocolate. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
  6. Add butter, espresso powder, and vanilla to the ganache and mix until glossy.
  7. Fill the Tart: Pour ganache into cooled crust. Smooth out and pop bubbles with a toothpick. Chill in the fridge for 2–3 hours until set.
  8. Make Berry Whipped Cream: In a saucepan, heat berries and ½ cup sugar over medium-low until reduced (6–7 min). Strain and let sauce cool.
  9. In a bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold in cooled berry sauce, reserving 1 tsp for glaze. Pipe whipped cream onto chilled tart.
  10. Decorate: Top with fresh strawberries and raspberries. Glaze with remaining berry sauce thinned with water.
  11. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the smoothest ganache.
  • Ensure the tart shell is fully cooled before pouring in the ganache to prevent separation.
  • Whip cream to stiff peaks before folding in fruit sauce for best texture.
  • Chilling the tart fully ensures clean slices and a firm texture.
