Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 3 hours; Total time approx. 3 hours 30 minutes

unbaked filling

For the dough, quickly knead all ingredients into a shortcrust pastry and chill for one hour. Then roll out the dough and line a tart tin with it. Trim off the excess edges. Bake the dough at 180°C for about 15 minutes until lightly browned. For the filling, bring the heavy cream, sugar, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan. Immediately remove from the heat and add the butter and chocolate. Stir until the chocolate has completely dissolved. Let the mixture cool slightly and stir in the cold milk until a smooth, glossy mixture forms. Sometimes it will look as if the mixture is about to curdle. If this happens, let it cool a little longer and stir in a little more cold milk until smooth. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the tart base and let it cool at room temperature for about 1-2 hours. Dust with cocoa powder.
