Strawberry S'mores Tart



Anyone who loves chocolate would surely love this dessert. I have some chocolate lovers in my house and after the regular chocolate tart became an all time favorite, I decided to give them another version. My friend Suzy tried this and went "OMG, what is in this...this is even nicer than the chocolate tart. It's soooo sweet and rich it's almost sinful" haha. Funny enough, this S'mores tart was easier to make than the regular tart. The original recipe requires marshmallow creme but good luck finding that in Nigeria. I just made my own "creme" haha. Ok, enuf talk...let's get the show on the road already.

Ingredients:
2 cups crushed digestive biscuits
4 Tablespoons sugar
½ cup butter, melted (½ cup = 1 stick = ½ pack)
200g semisweet chocolate
1pack whipping cream
Strawberries
Marshmallows (melted)



Directions:
Crush up enough digestive biscuit to make 2 cups. Add the melted butter and sugar.

Mix well till it looks like wet sand.

Bake for 10 minutes and then cool completely.


Break d chocolate into small pieces and put in a bowl. Pour the heavy cream into a saucepan and bring to a simmer (just before it boils). Pour into the bowl of chocolate pieces. Allow rest for one minute and then whisk till the ganache is smooth.

Slice some strawberries and lay of the tart shell that's completely cooled.


Pour the chocolate ganache into the shell and den add the melted marshmallows. Use a knife to smear d marshmallows around to make it look marbled. (You can use marshmallow creme if you can find in your area. I couldn't find so I just melted some marshmallows under low heat with a teaspoon of butter).

Refrigerate for 30minuntes and then add the strawberries. Refrigerate for another 30minutes or as long as you can endure without digging in. But make sure the chocolate has set well before digging in.


ENJOY!!!
