Whole Wheat Tart with Ricotta and Chocolate 🍫
A delicious tart made with a whole wheat base and filled with a luscious chocolate and ricotta cream. A great dessert for holidays or any day of the year! A very simple recipe that we can prepare at home. I chose to make a version with whole wheat flour because I’ve been preferring it lately, but if you don’t like it, you can opt for a Soft Tart Base with white flour and use the same filling.
