S’Mores tart recipe in the pie category
Recipe ingredients:
- Crust:
- 1/2 stick, 4 tablespoons, unsalted butter
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
- Filling:
- 1/2 stick, 4 tablespoons, unsalted butter
- 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cream, light or heavy, your choice
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all−purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Recipe method:
- To make the crust, melt the 1/2 stick of butter and combine it with the graham cracker crumbs, stirring together until uniform in texture.
- Lightly grease a 9 inch springform pan and gently press the crumb mixture into it, going up the sides by about 1 inch.
- Scatter the marshmallows evenly over the crust and set aside.
- Over the lowest possible heat, melt together the remaining butter and both chocolates.
- Stir occasionally until completely melted and smooth, about 20 minutes.
- Set the oven rack at the upper middle level and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Stir the vanilla into the cream and add to the chocolate mixture, beating at medium speed until thoroughly combined.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
- Stir together the flour, sugar and salt.
- At medium speed, beat this into the chocolate mixture in two or three batches to allow it to be thoroughly absorbed.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat again briefly.
- Carefully pour filling over crust, making sure to completely cover marshmallows. You may need to smooth the top of the filling with a spatula.
- Bake on the upper middle rack at 375 degrees F for 12 to 15 minutes, until the outer edge of the tart looks set but the inside still seems wobbly.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature before covering loosely with plastic and transferring to the fridge.
- Allow to chill at least 6 hours before cutting and serving.
- This keeps in the refrigerator, loosely covered, for several days.
- It is best served chilled.
