Description:
This delightful Raspberry Tart for 2 is inspired by a recipe from the renowned Nigella Lawson series of cookbooks. I’ve put a twist on it, making it a bit lighter and perfectly portioned for two people. Bursting with the freshness of raspberries and the indulgence of white chocolate, it’s a sweet treat that won’t weigh you down. Remember, the prep time doesn’t include the chill time in the freezer, so plan accordingly!

Instructions:

Prepare the Tart Crust:
- In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup of flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
- Slowly add in the margarine until well combined.
- Separate the yolk from an egg, placing half of it in a separate bowl.
-
Form the Tart Shells:
- Mix the egg yolk with a tablespoon of water.
- Roll out the dough and line your tart pans (mini ones work great).
- Pop the tart shells in the freezer for a solid 45 minutes to set.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place an empty baking sheet in the oven to warm up.
-
Bake the Tart Shells:
- Remove the tart shells from the freezer and gently remove them from the tart pans.
- Place them directly on the hot baking sheet in the oven.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until beautifully golden brown.
-
Make the White Chocolate Filling:
- While the tart shells are baking, let’s prepare the filling.
- In a small saucepan, melt the white chocolate with the nonfat milk over low heat.
- Once melted, slowly stir in the heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
-
Assemble the Tarts:
- Once the tart shells are out of the oven and cooled slightly, pour the luscious white chocolate mixture into the bottoms of each tart.
- Top generously with fresh raspberries, arranging them in a beautiful pattern.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Allow the tarts to cool completely before serving.
- Serve these delightful Raspberry Tarts to your loved one or indulge in both yourself!
Tips:
- For a decadent touch, sprinkle some shaved white chocolate or grated dark chocolate on top before serving.
- These tarts are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
