If chocolate is your thing, then this is your thing. I am also pretty sure that chocolate and almond is a match made in flavour heaven. Voila!

Since way before my days as a recipe developer I was a chocolate lover, and I think this dessert has been around longer than I can remember, but here it is a bit more elegant, with an ingredient tweak or two and of course it is great for feeding a lot of people plus pretty impressive as well.

I have loads of chocolate tart desserts on this site and throughout my published works. I always recommend using Callebaut chocolate as a great base chocolate. I enjoy eating Bean to Bar chocolate bars, (but I am also pretty fond of a few Callebaut callets in passing here and there!)
