Description
A decadent dessert delight featuring a rich chocolate ganache and fresh blueberries in a graham cracker crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for garnish)
- Mint leaves (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth and fully combined.
- Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the ganache is set.
- Once set, top the tart with fresh blueberries and dust with powdered sugar. Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
- Slice and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a fruitier flavor, consider adding a layer of blueberry jam beneath the ganache before pouring it in.
- Substitute the blueberries with raspberries or strawberries for a different berry tart experience.
