Chocolate yoghurt custard tart
I love chocolate tarts - the rich, sweet and bitter flavour is what the desserts of my dreams are made of. However there are times that a typical tart is just too much. I long for something a little lighter and with just enough tang to walk away feeling satisfied but not sick.
So here is my chocolate tart hybrid - a sweet and tangy chocolate yoghurt custard tart.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups thickened cream
- 100g dark chocolate
- 1 teaspoon heaped of cocoa
- 4 egg yolks
- ½ cup yoghurt
- 1 ½ tablespoon corn flour
- 1 cup caster sugar
- 14 biscuits
- 175g butter
- Blueberries
Method:
- Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees fan-forced
- Crush biscuits in a food processor until they resemble bread crumbs
- Mix in butter
- Spray a tart pan with oil and push the biscuit mixture into it to form the base
- Bake for 10minutes or until it starts to brown
- Take out and let cool
- Heat the cream
- Add the chocolate and cocoa and heat on low until melted
- In a separate bowl mix the yoghurt, corn flour and sugar until combined and corn flour is dissolved
- Add a little of the cream mixture into the yoghurt mixture and incorporate quickly
- Add a little more cream into the yoghurt and incorporate quickly
- After adding around half of the cream to the yoghurt, add the yoghurt mixture into the hot pan and cook on low, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the custard starts to thicken – you’ll know it’s thick enough when you can wipe your finger down the back of the wooden spoon and the line remains intact
- Let the custard cool - put glad wrap directly onto (touching) the custard while it cools to avoid a skin forming
- 1 hour before serving place the custard into the tart case and put in the fridge
- Take the tart out of the fridge just before serving
- Serve with blueberries and if you want, extra cream and icing sugar
This will certainly become a dinner party and BBQ favourite. Enjoy!
