    Recipe Introduction


    This doesn't have any added sugar in the filling, so it is perfect for people who really love dark chocolate. It is worth using good-quality chocolate for this one.

    List of Ingredients




    1 3/4 cup All purpose flour
    2 1/2 tablespoon Hazelnuts finely ground
    6 tablespoon Sugar
    6 tablespoon Butter unsalted, coarsely chopped
    1/4 teaspoon Salt
    12 ounces Bittersweet chocolate chopped
    1 1/4 cups Heavy cream plus extra for whipping, optional
    1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
    2 cups Raspberries for garnish, optional

    Recipe



    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine salt, nuts, sugar and flour. Cut in butter with knives or your fingers until you achieve a sandy texture (alternately, do this in a food processor).

    2. Press into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch removable-bottom tart pan. Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and allow to cool completely.

    3. Put chocolate in a bowl large enough to accomodate the rest of the ingredients. Bring cream to a boil, then pour over chocolate. Stir until completely combined, then add vanilla.

    4. Pour mixture into the tart shell. Allow to set at room temperature for about 2 hours. Serve garnished with whipped cream and/or raspberries.
