[Recipe] Chocolate Pecan and Walnut Tartlets using Oven

Super love these Chocolate Pecan & Walnut Tartlets! The family really likes how the double nuts add wonderful flavours and texture to these otherwise normal chocolate tarts.

Apart from the pecan adorning the top, there are also crushed walnuts at the bottom of the tart too.

Normal pecan tart fillings are made up of brown sugar but I switched things up with chocolate instead. I would rather gain calories from chocolate than sugar.

The sugar level is quite low already (even my mum approves!), so you don't need to adjust it further.

Makes 20 tartlets

(A)

80g baking chocolate (I use Callebaut Chocolate 54.5% Dark Couverture Chocolate)

90g butter

(B)

65g sugar

1 egg

2 egg yolks

20g flour

3/4 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

(C)

50g walnuts, crushed slightly

20 tart shells (I use Phoon Huat ready-made medium size)

20 pieces of pecan halves

1. Preheat oven at 170 Celsius.

2. Microwave the butter at Medium for 30s to melt it down. Add the chocolate to the warm butter. Combine till smooth. This is (A).

3. Combine (B) in another bowl.

4. Mix both (A) and (B) together.

5. Add some pieces of walnuts into each tartlet.

6. Pour the chocolate mixture into the tartlets. Place a pecan on top.

7. Bake the tartlets in oven at 170 Celsius for 15 min till golden brown. Enjoy!
