Coffee Chocolate Pecan Tarts

Indulge in a decadent delight with our Coffee Chocolate Pecan Tart, where rich espresso-infused chocolate meets toasted pecans in a buttery, flaky crust. Perfect for a coffee lover's dessert dream!

 Ingredients: 

  • 1 box of pre-made pie dough
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped semi-sweet chocolate
  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp Balzac's Anniversary Blend, strongly brewed
  • 2/3 cup corn syrup
  • 4 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 cup roughly chopped pecans

Instructions:  

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Shape the dough based on the measurement of your muffin pan of choice.
  3. Grease the muffin pan with butter. Place the dough into the cups of the muffin pan. Press your thumb into the center of each dough to create a divot. Using your thumb, push the dough up the sides of the muffin pan until the dough rises slightly above the rim of the pan.
  4. For the filling, add melted butter, brewed coffee, corn syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, eggs, and salt in a medium-sized bowl, and whisk until well combined.
  5. Add pecans to the mixture and stir to combine.
  6. To the tart shells, add chopped chocolate to the base. Top with pecan mixture until level with the top of the crust.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes until the crust is slightly golden brown.
  8. Filling will puff up but flatten back down when cooled.
