Soft Halloween Tart

The spiderweb tart is the ideal treat to spend Halloween with children. The recipe for this fantastic and scenic tart is super tried and tested; in fact, I prepare it every year for the costume party.

This recipe is super good and super easy; in fact, I photographed the various steps and also made a video tutorial to show you the extreme simplicity of this tart, loved by both the little ones and the grown-ups.

Well, I leave you the recipe follow me on my Facebook page on my Instagram profile, and I await you on my YouTube channel with my videos for a greeting and a comment.

Ingredients for the Spiderweb Tart

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 orange zest (grated)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch baking powder
  • 2 1/2 cups Nutella®

Tools

  • Pan for tart, 11 inches

Preparing the Spiderweb Tart

  • In a bowl, I put all the ingredients and start kneading to create a homogeneous dough. I wrap the dough ball in parchment paper and let it rest in the fridge for at least a couple of hours. After the resting time, I roll it out on the pastry board and place it on a 11-inch pan, pour the hazelnut cream, and start creating the web and Mr. Spider.

  • With the leftover shortcrust pastry, I create 4 little ropes and position them on the tart.

  • Then I make more (for my tart I made 16) and place them arched in each obtained slice, lastly the Mr. Spider. 🕷

    And voilà, the spiderweb tart is ready!!!

  • I cover the tart with a sheet of aluminum foil and bake it at 350°F for 20 minutes. Then I remove the aluminum foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes. I take it out and let it cool well. I put it on a beautiful plate and then create a monstrous atmosphere, and have fun🎃

Storage

You can store the tart for at least 4 days in a cool, dry place. Surely there will be no need because it will be devoured as soon as possible!
