Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed chocolate cookies (like Oreos)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 12 ounces dark chocolate (60–70%), chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons freeze-dried raspberry powder
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pistachios
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch tart pan.
  2. Mix crushed cookies and melted butter until well combined.
  3. Press mixture into tart pan, covering the base and sides evenly.
  4. Bake crust for 8–10 minutes. Cool completely.
  5. Heat cream until just simmering. Pour over chopped dark chocolate and let sit 1 minute.
  6. Stir until smooth. Add vanilla and salt.
  7. Pour ganache into cooled crust and smooth the top.
  8. Let tart set at room temperature for 2 hours or until firm.
  9. Roll extra ganache into small truffles. Coat in cocoa powder, coconut, raspberry powder, or pistachios.
  10. Decorate the tart with truffles once ganache is fully set.
  11. Slice and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor and texture.
  • Let the tart set slowly at room temperature to avoid cracking.
  • Make the tart a day ahead for easy slicing and deeper flavor.
  • Swap toppings based on what you have—nuts, seeds, or other fruit powders work too.
