Sinful Chocolate Tarts

When I tell people I made chocolate tarts, many of them seemed surprised that such thing existed. I admit not too long ago I too was skeptical to how chocolate tarts would taste. The first time I tried it about a year ago, it didn't win me over. I thought that the combination of buttery pastry and bittersweet chocolate was not very appealing to the taste buds.

Then recently, the idea of chocolate tarts resurfaced again when one of my friends said we should bake something for her sister's birthday. And I knew she'd want something chocolatey. So I suggested that we make chocolate tarts. It was a hit.

But the tarts I made then is a little different from this one. The previous one had a filling with brownies-like texture and had chocolate oozing out in the middle. This one here has a mousse-like texture and taste absolutely heavenly with a dollop of whipped cream. 


I got this fantastic recipe from here Chocolate Tart. Also, instead of a full 9-inch tart, I made it into tartlets.
