Categories     dessert

Time 2h45m

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 16-ounce bags almond flour
1 12-ounce jar coconut oil, melted
12 fluid ounces honey
4 14-ounce cans coconut milk
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon pasilla chile powder
1 tablespoon smoked sea salt
48 ounces dark chocolate chips or chunks

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the almond flour, coconut oil and honey on low speed until you reach a semi-clumpy consistency, it should feel damp and moldable, similar to modeling clay.
  • Separate and spread the mixture evenly into 20 6-inch tart pans. Place the tart pans on sheet trays and bake until they rise a bit, look toasty and the excess coconut oil bakes off, 18 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a saucepan set over medium heat, bring the coconut milk to a simmer. Whisk in the ancho powder, cayenne pepper, pasilla powder and salt.
  • Place the chocolate in a large bowl. Pour the simmering coconut milk over the chocolate and whisk until melted. Reserve for the tart shells.
  • Fill each shell evenly with the chocolate coconut ganache. Allow the ganache to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Serve the tarts cold.

CHOCOLATE CARAMEL COCONUT TARTS

Yummy and oh so tasty! The marshmallows make this nice and light and no one would guess that they are in there. Try not to serve these warm or at room temperature so the caramel isn't in one chewy chunk!

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 24-30 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup mini marshmallows, white
1 cup 2% evaporated milk, divided
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut, divided (1/2 cup is optional)
2 eggs, room temperature
24 tart shells, frozen uncooked (3-inch size)
12 Kraft caramels, unwrapped and cut in half

Steps:

  • Place 24 frozen tart shells on baking sheets. Let tart shells come to room temperature while you are preparing filling.
  • In a double boiler, add chocolate chips, marshmallows and ½ cup evaporated milk. Heat, stirring frequently, until mixture is smooth, about 10 minutes.
  • At the same time, pour ½ cup evaporated milk, coconut milk and corn syrup into a small saucepan and place over lowest heat setting. Do not set any higher! Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a hand blender. Very slowly, beat in the barely-warm evaporated milk and coconut milk mixture. Slowly drizzle in chocolate mixture while beating on low speed. When mixed, stir in toasted sliced almonds and 1 cup shredded coconut.
  • Fill each tart almost to the top with chocolate mixture. Put ½ a caramel on top of each filled tart. Bake for 15 - 18 minutes, until shells are lightly browned. Immediately sprinkle each tart with 1 teaspoon coconut (optional).
  • Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before handling. Serve warm if possible.

Tips for Making Coconut Chocolate Tarts:

- Use fresh coconut for the best flavor. Shredded coconut that has been sitting around for a while will not taste as good. - Toast the coconut before using it. This will bring out its flavor and make it more fragrant. - Be careful not to overcook the chocolate ganache. If it is overcooked, it will be too thick and difficult to spread. - Let the tarts cool completely before serving. This will allow the ganache to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Chocolate coconut tarts are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a creamy chocolate ganache filling and a flaky coconut crust, these tarts are sure to be a hit. You can also get creative with the toppings, adding things like chocolate shavings, whipped cream, or fresh fruit. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these chocolate coconut tarts a try. They are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth!
