In every healthy lifestyle, there should be room for little treats from time to time

As a hardcore chocolate lover, my treats of choice will often include loads of chocolate (yum!)

When I have a treat, I also like to make it something special – so instead of having some sad junk food that doesn’t even taste that well, my choice could be this strawberry tart with chocolate.

I had originally called this a strawberry pie, because there?s only one word for pie and tart in danish – it’s all just tærte. But with help from some lovely internet people, we’ve decided that this is a tart. (Let me just add that I don’t normally bake it in a springform pan like shown on the picture).

Chocolate Strawberry Tart Recipe

This is my all time favorite summer dessert recipe. I’d be lying if I said it was healthy, but health is about balance, and sometimes that means devouring this heavenly thing.

Course: Dessert

Keyword: chocolate, strawberry

Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients

Shortcrust pastry

125 g flour (wheat)
75 g butter
30 g sugar
1 tsp vanilla sguar
1 egg yolk

Marzipan base

100 g flour (wheat)
2 eggs
0.5 dL cream
100 g marzipan

Topping

100 g dark chocolate
250 g strawberries
Whipped cream, creme fraiche or similar to add when served

Instructions

Mix the ingredients for the short crust pastry
Knead the dough into a ball. Add a bit of water to it if necessary to make it stick together. Let the dough sit in the fridge for ~30 minutes
Prepare a pie/tart dish (or a springform pan like I did this time) and spread out the dough
Prebake for 10 minutes at 225ºC // 430ºF
Grate the marzipan
Beat eggs and sugar until a ribbon is formed, mix with cream and marzipan
Add the mixture to the prebaked tart crust (make sure you spread out the marzipan)
Bake the tart for 25-30 minutes at 175ºC // 350ºF
Spread the melted dark chocolate on top of the tart once it has cooled off, top with halved strawberries

Enjoy! ♡

P.S. If you have any strawberries left after decorating the tart, use them to get the last melted chocolate from the bowl for extra happiness points 😉

This sounds and looks delicious! It’s definitely on my must-try list now as I’m a chocoholic and absolutely love strawberries. Gotta wait till next summer though, probably, for fresh strawberries :'(

  Thanks darling! It’s to die for, I always look forward to making it in the summer – and in the winter, I guess we’ll just have to make do with the chocolate alone 😀
