Tasty Chocolaty Tart


Prep: 10 minutes   Bake: 40 minutes   Cool: 1 hour

My chocolaty tart has a nice balance of texture and sweetness to make any chocolate lovers mouth water. This chocolaty treat is paired great with a dollop of cool whip or a nice cold scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and a small cup of tea. The crust is made out of flour, butter, and eggs with the filling consisting of semisweet chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and walnuts.

Ingredients

½ cup butter softened
1 cup flour
1 egg
1 tbsp. butter
1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 bag (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 tsp vanilla

The Process

1. Heat oven to 400*. Cut 1/3 cup butter into flour inside a medium bowl. Mix together until crumbly.


2. Mix in egg and beat until dough forms. Press firmly and evenly against bottom and side of ungreased tart pan (9x1 inch pan) Bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown.


3. Once the crust is done, reduce the oven heat to 350* . Melt 1 Tbsp. of butter in a medium saucepan over a low heat. Add in the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. Cook low until all chocolate is melted.


4. Once all the chocolate is melted, add in the vanilla and walnuts. Scoop the chocolate mixture into the semi-baked crust.


5. Bake about 25 minutes or until edge is set but chocolate appears moist in the center. Cool completely in pan on wire rack, about 1 hour.

6. Enjoy!!
