Ingredients

Scale

For the Tart Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2–4 tablespoons ice water

For the Chocolate Ganache Filling:

  • 8 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate (chopped)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional, for shine)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Topping:

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
  • Mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the Tart Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the egg yolk and add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Press the dough into a tart pan with a removable bottom. Prick the bottom with a fork, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Bake the Tart Crust: Remove the tart crust from the refrigerator and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until set. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Make the Chocolate Ganache Filling: In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth. If using, stir in the butter and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Assemble the Tart: Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled tart crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours or until the ganache is set.
  5. Add Raspberries and Serve: Once the ganache is set, arrange fresh raspberries on top of the tart. If desired, dust the tart with powdered sugar and garnish with mint leaves before serving.

Notes

  • Use cold butter to create a flaky, crumbly tart crust.
  • Adjust the amount of ice water to ensure the dough holds together without being sticky.
  • Allow the tart crust to cool completely before adding the chocolate ganache to prevent it from melting.
  • The optional butter in the ganache adds a beautiful shine but can be omitted for a slightly firmer texture.
  • Refrigerate the tart to fully set the ganache for clean slices.
  • Fresh raspberries add a fresh, tart contrast to the rich chocolate—substitute with other fresh berries as desired.
