Thanks to Dharmagirl of Bliss: Towards a Delicious Life for her Tuesdays with Dorie pick of Tarte Noire, found on page 351 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. Dharmagirl has the recipe posted on her site here.
I
made four little tarts with half a recipe, using Dorie's Sweet Tart
Dough (page 444) for the shells. I have wrestled with this dough every
single time I have made it because it was always too dry and crumbly,
so this time I took Leslie's suggestion and used the whole egg, not
just the egg yolk, for a whole recipe (freezing the other half of the
dough for later), and it made a world of difference in handling. Looks
the same, tastes the same, so from now on, I'm thinking I will use the
whole egg for the tart dough, yep, so that's what I'm thinkin' to do.
Guys loved the tarts...cookie-like crust filled with chocolate ganache
and optional whipped cream on the top, what's not for them to love
about all that? Definitely a
repeat.
