Instructions for Chocolate Tart with Coffee Liqueur Filling
1. Prepare the Crust:
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 3/4 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of white granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Add Butter: Add 1 1/4 cups of cold, diced unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Water: Gradually add 2 tablespoons of cold water, mixing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Shape the Dough: Press the dough evenly into a tart pan, covering the bottom and sides. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Chill: Refrigerate the crust for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the filling.
2. Pre-bake the Crust:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake Crust: Once chilled, remove the crust from the refrigerator and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
3. Prepare the Filling:
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. Set aside.
Melt Chocolate Mixture: In a saucepan over low heat, combine 1/2 cup of chopped bittersweet chocolate, 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Stir until melted and smooth.
Combine Ingredients: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of coffee liqueur and the flour-cocoa mixture until well combined.
Whisk Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 whole egg, 2 egg yolks, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add the chocolate mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
4. Assemble the Tart:
Pour Filling: Pour the chocolate filling into the pre-baked tart crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
