Lindt Tart

Lindt Tart.

Simple, creamy, super delicious.

This Lindt tart originates from the famous Lindt cake a dessert that I adore and have tried in different flavors. I was missing the tart version, and here it is. To make it even more delicious, I made the mousse filling in two different flavors: white and dark chocolate. What can I say, it’s a fabulous dessert, only by trying it you can understand its goodness.

The Lindt tart is a wonderful dessert, simple to prepare and extremely delicious. A shell of crumbly pastry encloses two super delicious ganaches, one with white chocolate, the other dark. It makes this dessert uniquely delicious, one of those desserts you can’t say no to 🙂 try it, you’ll fall in love at first bite.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 9 tbsp butter
  • 1 medium egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • grated zest of one lemon (untreated)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 7/8 cup fresh liquid cream
  • 7 oz white chocolate (Good quality, I use Lindt)
  • 7/8 cup fresh liquid cream
  • 7 oz 55% dark chocolate (Good quality, I use Lindt)
  • 2 tsp butter

Tools

  • 1 Tart Pan
  • 1 Pastry Board
  • 1 Rolling Pin

Steps

  • Mix together sugar with flour and sifted baking powder.

    Place it in a fountain shape on a pastry board, make a well in the center, add the butter cut into small pieces, work with your fingers until you get a sandy mixture.

    Add the eggs, grated lemon zest, and a pinch of salt, knead quickly with your fingertips and then with your hands until you form a smooth and homogeneous dough.

    Butter a 9.5-inch tart pan with high edges.

  • Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured pastry board to a thickness of just over 1/5 inch and cover the pan, including the edges.


    Remove the excess pastry.


    Put the pan with the pastry in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

    After 30 minutes, preheat the oven to 350°F and wait 5 minutes for it to start heating up.


    Then take the pan with the pastry from the fridge, cover the inside with parchment paper and pour in the weights for blind baking the tart, alternatively, you can also use dried beans or chickpeas.


    Bake in the lower part of the oven (just above the base) for 12 minutes.

  • Carefully remove the parchment paper with the weights from the tart and put back in the oven for about another 10 minutes.


    It should also be slightly golden inside.


    Remove from the oven and let cool.

    Once the base is cool, we can prepare the white chocolate ganache.

  • Break the white chocolate into pieces.


    Place the cream in a saucepan over low heat.


    Add the chocolate to the cream, let everything melt over very low heat, stirring often. Once the mixture is well melted, smooth, and homogeneous, turn off the heat and stir well.


    Pour the white chocolate ganache into the tart.


    Let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

  • After the time has passed, let’s prepare the dark chocolate ganache (you can also mix milk and dark chocolate).

    Break the dark chocolate into pieces.


    Place the cream and butter in a saucepan over low heat.


    Add the chocolate to the cream, let everything melt over very low heat, stirring often. Once the mixture is well melted, smooth, and homogeneous, turn off the heat and let it cool slightly for a moment.


    Pour the ganache over the tart on top of the white chocolate ganache.


    Let it rest for at least 1 hour at room temperature.

  • Before serving, you can decorate the surface as you wish. I added some orange zest.

    Serve.
