amazing. It’s my go-to dessert recipe for any

it requires just a few simple ingredients.
An iconic combo of strawberries and
chocolate that lay over a thick flaky

is dangerously delicious! One bite and you
won’t stop until the whole thing is gone.

Ingredients needed
Butter: use cold and diced butter
Flour: I’m using all-purpose flour for the
crust
Vinegar: white or apple cider vinegar to
make your crust tender
Cornstarch: this will thicken the mixture
to a pudding texture.
Milk: I’m whole milk for the higher fat
content for a creamier consistency. You
can also use heavy cream or low fat milk.
Nutella: the star of the whole recipe!
Strawberries (optional): stem removed
and cut in half

How do you make a tart
crust?
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Add flour and
sugar to a food processor and pulse. Then
add in your diced cold butter and pulse.
···
Once the butter is broken up, add the
vinegar and run until the dough comes
together in the machine.
Turn dough out into a tart pan with a
removable bottom. Press with your hands
up the sides and across the bottom. It will
seem there isn’t enough dough – but there
is, just keep working on it!
···
To bake your dough, place a sheet of
parchment paper over the bottom and up
the sides of the tart. Fill the tart shell with
pie weights (or beans) then bake for 15
minutes. Remove the tart shell from the
oven and carefully remove the parchment
and weights; poke the bottom of the tart
with a fork. Return to the oven to bake
until lightly golden and cooked through
approximately 10-15 more minutes. Cool
completely before adding in the chocolate
filling.
How to make a chocolate
tart?
Whisk the cornstarch into milk in a small
bowl. Add the remaining milk, Nutella, salt,
and extracts in a pan and whisk over
medium heat until the Nutella melts, then
whisk in the cornstarch mixture.
···
Bring mixture to a boil, constantly
stirring with a rubber spatula or wooden
spoon. It will start to thicken. Once the
mixture starts to boil, stir constantly until
fully thickened,
Pour into the crust.
Cool for 15 minutes at room temperature,
then cover the top with plastic wrap to
prevent skin from forming and chill the tart
until cold and set, at least 3 hours.
···
Top with strawberries before serving, if
desired. I also melted about 2 tablespoons
of Nutella in the microwave and drizzled it
over the berries for a pretty topping.

Expert Tips
The mixture will be thick enough to coat
the back of the spoon but not a full
pudding consistency when it’s done
cooking. It will set more in the fridge as
it cools.
Store leftover tart in the refrigerator.
Once strawberries are added it will only
last a day or 2 before the berries begin
to weep. The Tart will last in the fridge
for 3-4 days without strawberries.
Feel free to substitute a no-bake tart
crust if you prefer.
Add some whipped cream on your
chocolate tart with strawberries to
dress up this delicious dessert

Ingredients
CRUST
½ cup unsalted butter (cold and
diced)
1 ½ cups (186g) all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
2 tablespoons (30ml) white vinegar
or apple cider vinegar
FILLING
2 tablespoons (16g) cornstarch
1 ¾ cups (414ml) whole milk
(divided)
¾ cup (202g) Nutella
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt
2-3 cups strawberries stem removed
and cut in half (optional)
Additional Nutella for drizzle,
optional
Instructions
1 Preheat oven to 400°F.
2 Pulse flour and sugar in a food
processor. Add diced butter and
pulse for about 20-30 seconds, until
the butter is broken up. Add the
vinegar and run until dough comes
together in the machine.
3 Turn dough out into a 10” tart pan
with a removable bottom. Press with
your hands up the sides and across
the bottom. It will seem there isn’t
enough dough – but there is, just
keep working it!
4 Place a sheet of parchment paper
over the bottom and up the sides of
the tart. Fill the tart shell with pie
weights (or beans). Bake for 15
minutes. Remove the tart shell from
the oven and carefully remove the
parchment and weights; poke the
bottom of the tart with the tines of a
fork. Return to the oven to bake until
light golden and cooked through,
approximately 10-15 more minutes.
Cool before filling.
5 When ready to fill the tart shell, make
the filling. Whisk the cornstarch into
¼ cup milk in a small bowl. Add the
remaining 1½ cups milk, Nutella, salt,
and extracts to a pan. Whisk over
medium heat until the Nutella melts,
then whisk in the cornstarch mixture.
6 Bring mixture to a boil, stirring
constantly with a rubber spatula or
wooden spoon. It will start to thicken.
Once the mixture starts to boil, stir
constantly until fully thickened,
about 2 minutes (it will coat the back
of the spoon). Pour into the crust.
7 Cool 15 minutes, then cover the top
with plastic wrap to prevent a skin
from forming and chill the tart until
cold and set, at least 3 hours.
8 Top with strawberries before serving,
if desired. I also melted about 2
tablespoons Nutella in the microwave
(about 30 seconds) and drizzled it
over the berries for a pretty topping.
