Another wonderful Fall recipe, although I have made it year around whenever the chocolate/nut craving strikes! It is rather like a pecan pie pushed to an even higher level. Originally published about one year ago in Bon Appetit, I modified the recipe to use my favorite nuts. Any combination will work well - just use your immagination!

COOKIE NUT CRUST



Cookie Nut Crust image

This recipe came from "The Farmers Almanac Blue Ribbon Recipes" cookbook, used for a pumpkin pie. I used it last night to make Bev's Chocolate Chip Pie. It turned out great. It can be prebaked for a cream-filled pie, or unbaked for a pie that must go into the oven. You could use this recipe as an alternative to just about any "crumb crust". Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the tart will be. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Toast the nuts before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Don't overmix the cookie crust. Overmixing will make the crust tough. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Chill the tart before serving. This will help the chocolate set and make it easier to slice.
  • Garnish the tart with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar. This will add a touch of elegance and make the tart even more delicious.

Conclusion:

This chocolate and mixed nut tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The rich chocolate filling is complemented perfectly by the crunchy cookie crust and the nutty flavor of the mixed nuts. This tart is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
