It's pi day! And in honor of 3.14 (and because it was this week's Tuesdays with Dorie choice), I made this beautiful chocolate raspberry tart.
Here are the fresh raspberries sprinkled onto the baked crust.
And the two kinds of chocolate chopped fine.
And my piece of pie with a pi symbol on the whipped cream!
Alas, these pictures don't do justice to the luxuriously smooth and rich tasting filling of the tart. It's altogether delightful with just a spoonful of soft whipped cream. Even though there's nothing particularly adult about the ingredients (no alcohol, for example), it's still not a children's dessert. The combination of fresh raspberries and chocolate is quite sophisticated. I wish I hadn't eaten so much dinner beforehand! It would be a glorious celebration of summer when raspberries are in season.
ReplyDeleteI totally giggled at your "PI" symbol written into the whipped cream. Hilarious! Glad you enjoyed the tart. Happy belated PI Day!
