Time 3h

Yield 16 shortbread cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
Silver nonpareils, for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300˚. Lightly butter the bottom and side of a 9-inch fluted tart pan. Combine the all-purpose and whole-wheat flours, confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse until combined. Add the butter and vanilla and pulse until the flour is moistened and the dough just begins to clump together.
  • Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork, about 30 times.
  • Bake until the shortbread is lightly browned and set in the center, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then sprinkle with the chopped chocolate. Let the chocolate soften, about 5 minutes, then spread into a thin layer with an offset spatula, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge. Top with nonpareils; let cool completely.
  • Remove the tart from the pan and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into thin wedges.
