Chocolate Peppermint Raspberry Tart
- FOR THE CRUST:
- 2 cups Crushed Chocolate Graham Crackers
- 12 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 1/2 cups Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
- 12 sprigs Fresh Mint (Peppermint)
- 1/4 cups Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 3 ounces, weight Dark Chocolate Chips
- 2 Tablespoons Unflavored Gelatin Granules
- 1/4 cups Cold Water
- 1/2 cups Plain Yogurt
- 1/2 pounds Fresh Raspberries
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. In a medium bowl combine the cracker crumbs with the melted butter, sugar and the salt. Press into the bottom of a 4x14" tart tin. Press the mixture up the sides and firmly along the bottom. Bake until firm, 15-20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan combine the heavy cream, 6 of the peppermint sprigs, the sugar and the salt. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid scorching. Then remove from heat, set aside and allow to come to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, melt the chocolate. You can do this in a saucepan on very low heat, in the top of a double boiler or in the microwave for 30 second increments. Using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, spread the chocolate along the bottom and halfway up the sides of the cooled tart shell. Refrigerate until firm.
- In a small bowl, combine the water and gelatin, and allow to sit 5-10 until completely softened.
- Once the cream and mint mixture has cooled, remove the mint by pouring the mixture into a bowl through a sieve. Then return the mixture to the saucepan on a low heat. Add the gelatin mixture and the yogurt and stir until thoroughly combined. Carefully pour the mixture into the tart shell and transfer it to the refrigerator. Chill for 5-6 hours.
- Prior to serving garnish with berries and the extra sprigs of mint.
