Equipment

  • 9 inch tart pan with removable bottom
  • food processor

Ingredients

Date & Nut Crust

  • 6 dates, pitted
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup almond flour

Chocolate Tart

  • 1 block silken tofu
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened, dairy-free yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 espresso shot
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 11 oz chocolate of choice for melting
  • 2-3 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

For the Crust

  • In your food processor, pulse dates for a few seconds. Then add in pinch of salt, walnuts, almond flour, and maple syrup. Pulse for another few seconds in food processor until you reach desired texture for your crust.
  • Pour crust mixture into a lightly greased tart pan with removable bottom. Press crust into pan. Place pan in the refrigerator while you prepare your tart mixture.

Chocolate Tart

  • Absorb excess moisture from tofu block with a few napkins. Cut block into cubes and place into a blender or nutribullet. Add in shot of espresso, vanilla extract, yogurt, and sugar. Blend until you get a creamy and silky mixture. Pour into a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, melt together your chocolate and coconut oil. Fold melted chocolate into your tofu mixture. Sift and fold your cocoa powder. Pour over crust and refrigerate for at least 5 hours. Refrigerate overnight for texture that's a bit more firm. Keep covered and stored in the refrigerator.
