Ingredients
Chocolate Tart Crust:
- 10 Tbsp Unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- ⅓ Cup Sugar
- ¼ tsp Fine sea salt
- 1 Egg yolk
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ Cup Hawaiʻi-Grown ʻUlu Flour
- ¼ Cup Cocoa powder
Raspberry Curd:
- 3 Cups Raspberries, fresh or frozen
- ½ Cup Sugar
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 2 Tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp water
- 2 Large egg yolks
- 2 Tbsp + 2 tsp Cornstarch or tapioca starch
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp Chilled unsalted butter, diced
- Optional: Fresh mixed berries and lemon zest for garnish
Directions
Chocolate Tart Crust:
- In a large bowl, combine sugar, salt, and butter and cream together on medium speed until combined, scraping down the bowl with a spatula as needed.
- Add egg yolks and vanilla and beat until incorporated.
- Add flour and mix on low speed until the flour is fully incorporated and dough comes together. Press the dough in an 11-inch or 10-inch round tart pan. The dough should be less than ¼-inch thick on the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Use the bottom of a small round cup or a tart tamper to press the bottom and sides to the edge of the tart pan. Flatten the top edge with your fingertips or trim with a paring knife so it sits in line with the top of the tart pan.
- Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Set the tart pan over a baking sheet to make it easier to transfer and bake in the middle rack in the center of the oven for about 25-28 minutes.
- You will know your tart crust is done baking when it’s set in the center and you can smell the ʻulu flour.
Raspberry Curd
- Combine raspberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove mixture from heat and let stand for 5 minutes to cool.
- Blend in a food processor until smooth.
- Strain mixture through a sieve into the cleaned/rinsed saucepan.
- Add egg mixture to raspberry purée.
- Bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook for one minute, stirring constantly then remove from the heat.
- Add salt and butter one piece at a time and stir until smooth.
- Pour curd over prepared tart, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the fridge to set for up to 2 hours.
- When ready to serve, remove plastic wrap and shape the top of the curd with a rubber spatula and add fresh berries and lemon zest for freshness.
- Enjoy!
