I ordered some silicone molds thinking they were going to be the size of big peanut butter cups, but I opened the package to find mini tart-size pans. My disappointment quickly turned to excitement thinking of all the possibilities! I went into the kitchen and let what I had inspire me — and this vegan raspberry chocolate tarts recipe was born. I must say the result is darn delicious. Living a healthier lifestyle doesn't mean you have to give up decadence, and these vegan chocolate tarts prove it. Rich and so full of flavor, they'll knock you off your chair.
Ingredients
- 1 cup firmly packed pitted dates
- 0.5 cups walnuts
Instructions
-
1
Combine dates and walnuts in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until well mixed, about 2 minutes. Press about 2 tablespoons date-walnut mixture into each bottom of a 12-cup mini tart pan. Freeze while making ganache.
-
2
Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in the top of a double boiler over simmering water; stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Add melted chocolate to the bowl of the food processor. Add coconut cream and cocoa powder; process until smooth, about 1 minute.

3
Spoon about 1 ½ teaspoons ganache on top of each crust, spreading to the edges, adding enough to reach halfway up sides of tart cups. Freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.
-
4
Mash raspberries in a small bowl with a fork until becomes a sauce-like consistency; spread a layer of mashed raspberries onto hardened ganache, without going all the way to the edges. Freeze until sauce is firm and won't collapse when topped with more ganache, about 20 minutes.

5
Add remaining ganache to tarts cups until reaches tops, spreading all the way to the edges to seal in raspberry sauce as much as possible. Freeze to firm up, about 10 minutes. Refrigerate tarts if serving within 2 hours.

Puffed Caramel Corn
Puffed corn can be found in the potato chip aisle of your grocery store and is used in this recipe to make great caramel corn without hulls or unpopped kernels. Warning: you need to make a double batch of this because it doesn't last long, at least not in my house. Very addicting. Love it!
Creamy Poppy Seed Chicken
This poppy seed chicken recipe is an excellent way to use up leftover chicken. I make this tasty casserole at least once a month. We like it with mashed potatoes or rice and a green vegetable.
Gochujang Pork Belly Bites
These gochujang pork belly bites are sweet and spicy, crispy and crunchy, and absolutely delicious. Whether you finish them with the gochujang sauce in the air fryer, or just dip them in the sauce at the end, they are irresistibly good.
