Caramelized Mango Tart With Mexican Chocolate and Pepitas
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 small mangoes, peeled, flesh cut from the pits, cut into 3/4-inch slices (about 1 3/4 pounds total ripe but not over-ripe)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 12 ounces round mexican chocolate, roughly chopped (Ibarra brand is readily available)
- 1 ounce bittersweet chocolate, roughly chopped
- 13 cup toasted salted pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 14 cup almond butter (look for it in natural foods stores or sections of your grocery store)
- 0.5 (1 lb) package puff pastry
- Caramelize the mangoes.
- In a large (12-inch) non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
- When it begins to brown, add the mangoes.
- Stir frequently for a couple of minutes until the fruit releases its juice.
- Sprinkle the sugar over the mango and continue stirring frequently until all the liquid has evaporated and the mango has begun to caramelize, about 4 minutes.
- Cool.
- Make the chocolate-pepita filling.
- Turn on the oven to 400F and position the rack in the middle.
- Scoop the 2 chocolates into a food processor.
- Pulse until finely chopped, then add the pepitas and continue pulsing until they, too, are finely chopped.
- Scrape down the sides, then scrape in the almond butter.
- Process until the mixture is smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Bake the tart.
- Unroll the puff pastry.
- (If you are using the widely available Pepperidge Farms puff pastry, the sheet will be 10x10 inches; if yours isnt, cut it to that size).
- Cut into 2 rectangles 5 x 10 inches each and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Spread the chocolate mixture over the puff pastry, leaving a full 1-inch border all around.
- Top with the cool mango slices in an even layer.
- Bake until the pastry is richly brown and mango richly caramelized, about 25 minutes.
