chocolate tarts

i made these incredible delicious chocolate tarts for christmas eve and they were a huge hit.  i made them once more for new years eve, and have been craving them since.

the recipe was found in southern living magazine, i will share it when i find it again in my kitchen.

super easy

ingredients:
store bought pie crust
bakers semisweet chocolate
whipping cream
vanilla
salt
amounts to come....

fill mini muffin tins with small rounds of pie crust, i use the pampered chef tool, don't know what it's called, but it is wooden with balls on both ends, i will take a picture and post soon.  this tool is crucial in many of my favorite mini muffin recipes. bake for 10 minutes.

while that is baking finely chop the chocolate

heat whipping cream in pot, add chocolate to cream to melt let cook for a few minutes on medium temp just until melted and creamy.

let mixture cool 30 minutes

let tarts cool after they come out of the oven let rest for ten minutes then remove them from the pan and let rest while mixture is cooling.

pour cooled mixture into mini pie crusts, refrigerate for 1-24 hours the longer the better i found. i made them the night before and they came out with a great truffle quality to the chocolate.

top with fresh made whip cream, and enjoy, be careful though they are highly addictive!
