Chocolate And Berry Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out pastry on floured surface to 14x11-inch rectangle. Trim two 1-inch-wide strips off each edge (for a total of 8 strips) and reserve. Transfer pastry rectangle to ungreased baking sheet. Pierce rectangle all over with fork. Brush with glaze. Arrange 1 pastry strip atop each edge of rectangle, trimming to join strips at corners. Brush with glaze. Top each edge with remaining pastry strips, covering corner seams and trimming to square off. Brush with glaze. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake 5 minutes. Pierce pastry rectangle (not sides) all over with fork. Continue baking until golden, about 20 minutes longer. Cool on rack.
• Melt chocolate in top of double broiler over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon jelly; stir until melted. Add 2 tablespoons sour cream; mix until smooth. Spread in crust.
• Melt remaining 1/4 cup jelly in small saucepan over low heat, stirring often. Combine berries in bowl. Add melted jelly; stir to coat. Immediately spoon berries atop soft chocolate in crust, covering chocolate completely. Chill just until set, about 1 hour. Let stand at room temperature. (Can be made 6 hours ahead.)
• Combine 1/4 cup sour cream and crème de cassis. Serve with tart.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Blend flour, butter, and sugar together in a food processor until crumbly. Pour in water; mix until crust dough holds together. Press into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Poke holes in dough with a fork to eliminate air bubbles.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven; increase oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Chop chocolate and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring occasionally, until melted; spread over baked crust.
• Beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, vanilla extract, and egg together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth; spread filling over chocolate layer.
• Arrange berries tightly and evenly over cream cheese filling. Mix raspberry syrup and blackberry schnapps together in a small bowl; brush over berries using a pastry brush.
• Bake in the preheated oven until berries are reduced and filling begins to set, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven; filling will set completely as it cools.
