300g bag bittersweet, milk or dark chocolate chips
230g mascarpone cheese
Whipped cream and chocolate shavings (optional)
Instructions
- Stir together flour, sugar and nuts in a large bowl. Add butter and mix with a pastry blender until butter is the size of small peas. Stir in the egg a little at a time, adding only until dough comes together.
- Press evenly onto the bottom and sides of a 9" tart pan with a removable bottom and prick all over with a fork. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 180°c. Bake crust for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and let cool.
- In a medium saucepan over very low heat, melt cream, chocolate and vanilla together. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then whisk in cheese.
- Press prunes on the bottom of prepared crust, then spread chocolate filling evenly over the top. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.
- Cut into thin wedges and top each with a dollop of whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.
