These yummy chocolate tartlets are just the Tuesday Treat for me. I loooooove chocolate, especially when it’s combined with red fruits and blueberries. I made these when I got invited to dinner over at my cousin’s place and used some dough that I had left over from another tartlet recipe that I’ve made (but haven’t posted yet). It’s actually quite easy to make, the only tricky thing is trying to get your pie base even. But, at the same time, it’s not that crucial either of course. As long as the pastry isn’t too thin so that if alls to pieces when you take it out of the shells you’ll be fine.
The chocolate filling only requires two ingredients: dark chocolate and cream. Using dark chocolate does mean the tartlet isn’t overly sweet. If you’re not a fan of dark chocolate you can use both dark & milk chocolate. I don’t recommend using only milk chocolate cause along with the cream and sweet base you’ll end up with something way too sweet.

Divide the dough into 10 portions, roll them out into circles and put them onto your tartlet tins.
Put baking paper on top of your dough and add weights (ceramic beads, rice, ..) as we're going to be blind baking our tartlets.
Break the chocolate into pieces and melt at low heat along with the cream.
Add your favourite berries on top, you can dust them with a bit of powdered sugar too but it's not necessary.
