Dark Chocolate Tart





For the Crust:

9 graham crackers, chocolate (not chocolate dipped) or honey
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar

For the Filling:

8 oz bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chopped
1 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (evaporated milk works great too)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Chocolate Glaze:

2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream (evaporated milk works great too)
1 3/4 oz bittersweet or semisweet chocolate (I used the same as in filling)
1 teaspoon corn syrup 
1 tablespoon water




1) Make the Crust: In a food processor, finely grind up crackers, add sugar. Add butter and pulse until well combined. Press into a 9 inch tart pan (the original recipe says to go 3/4 the way up the side, but I went right up the entire side, and everything was fine). Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Then let cool for 15-20 minutes.
2) Make the Filling: Either in the microwave or in a saucepan, bring cream to a boil. Remove from heat and pour over the 8 oz chopped chocolate. Let sit 5 minutes, then gently whisk to combine. Then, whisk together eggs, vanilla, and salt. Add to chocolate mixture and whisk to combine. Pour into cooled crust and bake at 350 for 18-25 minutes - until filling is set about 3 inches from edge but center is still wobbly. Let cool for 1 hour.
3) Make the Glaze: Either in the microwave or in a small saucepan, bring the 2 tablespoons cream to a boil, remove from heat. Pour over 1 3/4 oz chocolate. Whisk to combine. Then, whisk in corn syrup and water. Pour onto tart, tilting around to spread the glaze evenly. Let set 1 hour. Serve.
