Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

Crust
1/3 cup sliced almonds (about 1 1/4 ounces)
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
Filling
6 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
4 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
Pink Peppercorn Ice Cream

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Using on/off turns, finely grind almonds in processor. Transfer ground almonds to small bowl. Add butter and sugar to processor; blend until smooth. Blend in egg. Add ground almonds, flour, and salt; using on/off turns, process just to blend. Gather dough into ball and flatten into disk. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate overnight. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
  • Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Using 5-inch-diameter plate or bowl as guide, cut out rounds. Gather dough scraps and repeat to form 8 rounds total. Press each dough round over bottom and up sides of 4 1/4- to 4 1/2-inch-diameter by 3/4-inch-high tartlet pan with removable bottom. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange tartlet pans on large rimmed baking sheet. Bake crusts until golden brown around edges, pressing with back of fork if crusts bubble, about 20 minutes. Cool crusts 10 minutes.
  • For filling:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Stir chocolate and butter in double boiler over barely simmering water until melted and smooth; cool slightly. Beat eggs and sugar in large bowl to blend. Fold chocolate mixture into egg mixture. Fold in flour.
  • Divide filling among crusts. Bake tarts on baking sheet until filling is puffed and set, about 13 minutes. Cool slightly. Remove tartlet pan sides. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool completely in pans. Cover tarts with foil. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm on sheet in 350°F oven 5 minutes.)
  • Serve tarts warm with Pink Peppercorn Ice Cream.

2 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup pink peppercorns, crushed (about 1/2 ounce)
7 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Bring milk, cream, sugar, and peppercorns to boil in heavy large saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; let stand at room temperature 1 hour for flavors to blend.
  • Bring milk mixture to simmer. Whisk egg yolks in large bowl to blend. Gradually whisk hot milk mixture into yolks.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pink peppercorns for the best flavor.
  • Toast the pink peppercorns in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes, to enhance their flavor.
  • Let the ice cream base cool completely before churning. This will help it churn more smoothly.
  • Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions.
  • Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the ice cream to firm up.
  • Serve the ice cream with fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
