COCONUT CHOCOLATE TARTS
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!

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:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your tarts. Choose a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao content for a rich, dark flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the tarts tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough before baking will help to prevent the tarts from spreading too much in the oven.
- Don't overbake the tarts. Overbaking the tarts will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the tarts just until they are set.
- Let the tarts cool completely before serving. This will help to prevent the tarts from falling apart.
