Ingredients

• 2 cups Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 large Egg whites
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0 Optional: Whipped cream or fresh berries for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, granulated sugar, and egg whites. Stir until the mixture is evenly combined and sticky.

Step 3

Grease a 6-cup muffin tin or tart pan. Divide the coconut mixture evenly among the cups, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides to form crusts.

Step 4

Bake the coconut crusts in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan.

Step 5

While the crusts cool, make the chocolate filling. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Remove from heat immediately.

Step 6

Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the hot cream. Let sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then whisk until smooth.

Step 7

Stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Let the mixture cool slightly until it thickens but is still pourable.

Step 8

Once the coconut crusts are completely cooled, carefully remove them from the pan.

Step 9

Fill each crust with the chocolate ganache, dividing it evenly among the tarts.

Step 10

Chill the tarts in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate filling is set.

Step 11

Garnish with whipped cream or fresh berries if desired before serving. Enjoy your Coconut Chocolate Tarts!
