Ingredients

• 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 2 tablespoons Ice water
• 8 ounces Bittersweet chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
• 1 tablespoon Honey (optional for brushing strawberries)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually mix in the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Do not overwork.

Step 4

Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 6

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.

Step 7

Press the dough into the tart pan, trimming any excess, and prick the bottom with a fork.

Step 8

Line the crust with parchment paper, fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake for 12 minutes. Remove the weights and paper, and bake for an additional 5-8 minutes until set. Allow to cool completely.

Step 9

To prepare the ganache, place the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer, then pour it over the chocolate.

Step 10

Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and stir to combine.

Step 11

Pour the ganache into the cooled tart shell and spread into an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until set.

Step 12

Arrange the halved strawberries on top of the tart in your desired pattern. If desired, lightly brush the strawberries with honey for added shine.

Step 13

Slice and serve the chocolate strawberry tart chilled or at room temperature.
