Steps

  • Pulse flour, salt, and butter in a food processor until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
  • Add egg yolks and sugar, pulsing until a dough forms, adding cold water if necessary.
  • Wrap the dough in cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 200°C.
  • Roll the dough on a floured surface to fit a 25cm tart tin and line the tin.
  • Cover pastry with greaseproof paper and baking beans, then bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove paper and beans, then bake for another 5 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Boil double cream, vanilla extract, and sugar slowly in a pan.
  • Pour hot cream over dark chocolate and butter pieces, whisking until smooth.
  • Pour the filling into the tart case and chill in the fridge for 2 hours.
  • Heat half the single cream with the vanilla pod until warm, then remove the pod.
  • Stir in white chocolate until melted, followed by the remaining cream.
  • Serve tart wedges with white chocolate sauce, raspberries, and mint.
