Crust
- 2 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup nut butter (such as almond or peanut butter)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
Filling
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 cup canned coconut milk (full-fat, not light)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, nut butter, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated into a dough.
- Shape the crust: Transfer the dough to a tart pan or pie pan, pressing it firmly and evenly across the bottom and sides. Create a slight well or indentation in the center to hold the filling. Set the crust aside.
- Prepare the filling: Pour the coconut milk into a small microwave-safe bowl and heat for about 45 seconds until warm but not boiling.
- Melt the chocolate: Add chocolate chips and vanilla extract to the warm coconut milk. Let the mixture sit for 1 minute to soften the chocolate, then whisk vigorously until smooth and glossy.
- Assemble the tart: Pour the chocolate filling into the crust’s well, spreading it evenly over the surface.
- Chill: Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours or until the filling is fully set and firm to the touch.
- Serve: Add your favorite toppings if desired, slice, and enjoy. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Use full-fat canned coconut milk for a creamier texture; avoid light coconut milk.
- You can substitute nut butter varieties depending on your preference or allergies.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder to the filling.
- Make sure to chill long enough to allow the filling to firm up properly before serving.
- Store the tart covered in the fridge, and consume within 3-4 days for best freshness.
