Irresistible Triple Chocolate Tart with Smoked Sea Salt

Ingredients

- Chocolate cookie crust (pre-made or homemade): 1 (9-inch)
- Bittersweet chocolate (70% cocoa): 6 oz
- Semisweet chocolate: 4 oz
- White chocolate: 3 oz
- Whipped cream: 1 cup (plus extra for serving)
- Coffee (strongly brewed or espresso): 1/4 cup
- Smoked sea salt flakes: 1/4 tsp
- Butter (unsalted): 2 tbsp

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare the Chocolate Filling:
Break the bittersweet and semisweet chocolate into small pieces. Combine them in a heatproof bowl along with the butter and coffee.

3. Melt the Chocolate Mixture:
Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water (double boiler method). Stir occasionally until the chocolate and butter have completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove it from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.

4. Combine with Whipped Cream:
Gently fold in the whipped cream into the melted chocolate mixture using a spatula until well combined and smooth. This will create a fluffy chocolate filling.

5. Assemble the Tart:
Pour the chocolate filling into the chocolate cookie crust, spreading evenly with the back of a spoon or a spatula.

6. Bake the Tart:
Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes. This will help the filling to set slightly while maintaining its smooth, creamy texture.

7. Prepare the White Chocolate Topping:
In a separate heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate using the same double boiler method until smooth. Drizzle the melted white chocolate artistically over the baked tart.

8. Add a Finishing Touch:
Sprinkle the smoked sea salt flakes evenly atop the tart to enhance the chocolate flavors with a smoky hint.

9. Allow to Cool:
Let the tart cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the filling and topping to firm up.
