Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 5 tablespoons butter, melted
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 oz unsweetened or bittersweet chocolate
- 1 tablespoon espresso powder
- 2 cups heavy cream
Toppings:
- Whipped cream
- Chocolate covered espresso beans
Instructions
- Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together in a medium-sized bowl. Firmly press the mixture into the bottom of a 10 1/4 or 11-inch round tart pan to form the crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or a flat glass to help evenly press the mixture in, forming it up the sides as well. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream with the semi-sweet chocolate, bittersweet chocolate and espresso powder over low heat. Slowly melt and whisk to combine until smooth and glossy, being careful to not bring to a boil. The ganache will be thickened, but still runny enough to be able to pour.
- Pour the chocolate espresso filling into the prepared tart crust. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 24 hours in advance.
- Garnish with whipped cream and chopped chocolate covered espresso beans before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- If bittersweet or unsweetened chocolate can’t be found, dark chocolate can be used.
- This tart does very well in the refrigerator! Can make a couple days in advance and top with whipped cream prior to serving.
