Ultimate No-Bake Chocolate Tart
A rich, creamy chocolate tart with a crunchy, buttery crust that requires no baking, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
For the crust
- 350 g digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed into fine crumbs
- 180 g unsalted butter, melted
- A little g extra butter, for greasing the tart tin
For the filling
- 340 g dark chocolate chips, or dark chocolate with at least 50% cocoa, chopped small
- 250 ml double cream For a rich filling
Instructions
Preparation of Crust
- Lightly butter a 23 cm loose-bottom tart pan.
- Blend the biscuits into fine crumbs in a food processor, or crush them in a sealed bag with a rolling pin.
- Transfer the crumbs to a bowl, add the melted butter, and stir until the mixture is evenly coated.
- Firmly press the crumb mixture into the base and sides of the prepared pan using your fingers or the bottom of a glass.
- Place the crust in the fridge to chill.
Preparation of Filling
- Put the chocolate into a heatproof bowl.
- Heat the cream in a microwave-safe jug until very hot but not boiling, about 1 minute 20 seconds.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 2 minutes.
- Stir gently until the mixture turns smooth, glossy, and fully melted.
Assembly and Chilling
- Remove the chilled crust from the fridge and pour in the chocolate filling.
- Refrigerate for about 3 hours, or until fully set. Leaving it overnight gives the best result.
- Once firm, remove the tart from the pan and slice into 12 portions.
Notes
Serve garnished with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel for added flavor.
