Zubereitung von Bittersweet Truffle Tart
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Make the crust:**
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup powdered sugar, ½ cup ground almonds, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gently knead with your hands until the dough comes together.
- Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the crust is slightly puffed and set.
- Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- **Make the chocolate ganache:**
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream, 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (chopped), and ¼ cup granulated sugar.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in ¼ cup strawberry jam.
- Pour into a medium bowl, cover, and chill for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is cooled and slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
- Beat the cooled ganache for about 30 seconds, or until the color lightens slightly.
- Pour the ganache into the cooled crust, spreading evenly.
- Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- **Make the whipped almond mascarpone:**
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces mascarpone cheese, ⅔ cup powdered sugar, ⅓ cup heavy cream, and ⅛ teaspoon almond extract.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
- Increase the speed to high and beat until the mixture is thick and holds stiff peaks.
- **Assemble and serve:**
- Gently loosen the edge of the crust from the sides of the pan using a small sharp knife.
- Remove the tart from the pan.
- Spread the whipped mascarpone evenly over the top of the tart.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings, if desired.
- Yields 10 servings.
