Ingredients
Biscuit Base
- 240 g digestive biscuits crushed (breadcrumb consistency)
- 100 g unsalted butter melted
Terry's Chocolate Orange and Cardamom Filling
- 150 ml double cream
- 5 g caster sugar
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 50 g unsalted butter cubed at room temperature
- 100 g 74% dark chocolate broken into pieces
- 150 g Terry's Chocolate Orange (milk chocolate) broken into pieces
- Seeds from 8 green cardamom pods finely ground using a mortar and pestle (optional)
- 40 ml semi-skimmed milk
- Double cream to serve
Instructions
Biscuit Base
- Line the base of a 23cm loose base flan tin with baking paper.
- Mix the melted butter into the biscuit crumbs and tip into the prepared tin. Use the back of a spoon to press down the mixture to create an even base. Press the mixture up the sides to create the tart case. You need the wall of the tart case to come about 3/4's the way up the side of the tin. Take time to create an even tart case. Place in the fridge.
Terry's Chocolate Orange and Cardamom Filling
- Meanwhile gradually heat the double cream, ground cardamom seeds, sugar and salt in a pan over a medium-low heat. Stir frequently with a wooden spoon.
- Remove from the heat when the cream starts to bubble around the edges. Stir in the butter, chocolate and cardamom until melted.
- Pour in the milk and gently stir through until smooth and glossy.
- Tip the gooey chocolate mixture into the tart case. Chill in the fridge for 2 hours until the chocolate mixture has set.
- Remove the tart from the fridge 20 minutes before serving. Remove the tart from the tin and serve on a plate or wooden board. Slice and serve with a drizzle of double cream or berries.
