Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for espresso cream)
  • 1/4 cup espresso or strong coffee
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Add the softened butter and mix until crumbly.
  3. Add the egg and mix until the dough comes together. Press the dough into a tart pan evenly across the bottom and up the sides.
  4. Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 15-20 minutes until set. Let it cool completely.
  5. In another bowl, mix the chocolate hazelnut spread, eggs, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  6. Pour the chocolate hazelnut mixture into the cooled tart shell and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes until the filling is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
  7. Let the tart cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
  8. To prepare the espresso cream, whip the heavy cream with espresso and granulated sugar until soft peaks form.
  9. Slice the tart and serve with a generous dollop of espresso cream on top. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For an extra layer of flavor, add a splash of coffee liqueur to the espresso cream if desired.

For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with almond flour in the crust. Make sure to chill the tart for at least an hour before serving to allow the filling to set properly.

If you want to add a touch of elegance, consider garnishing the tart with shaved chocolate and chopped hazelnuts before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
