Tuesdays with Dorie: Soft Chocolate and Raspberry Tart

Dorie's soft choc tart storyboard

Rich and decadent. Sophisticated and special. Chocolaty and fruity. Silky and smooth. Perfect with coffee.

I was conflicted about whether to make this tart.  It’s the chocolate and fruit combination I wasn’t sure about.  But I can’t pass up an opportunity to practice taking pictures.  So I tried it and was won over!

I used my own favorite tart recipe and added pecans per Dorie’s suggestion. The filling went together quickly.  Maybe too quickly. How did I get so many bubbles?  Despite banging it on the counter top multiple times, my tart had the appearance of a sponge.

This tart is perfect for a special celebration.  Anyway you slice it….

Lovely photos! I think there was no way to get rid of all the bubbles.

Thanks for baking along with me this week and for stopping by my blog! =) Your tart looks great, bubbles and all! Your photos are nice too, I like the chocolate being poured into the tart.

I’m going to have to peek around your blog, it’s very nice!

I hate you…. fresh raspberries, the perfect tart shell, perfectly cooked (mine was burnt compared to yours). :) Oh well…. something for me to strive for! This looks like it belongs in Gourmet (RIP)… truly beautiful Paula! Mine bubbled toward the end – actually kind of “pok-marked”…. but was still good. Another exquisite TWD dish!
