Recipe for the vegan chocolate tart

Our recipe quantity is enough for 20 pieces of the delicious, flat chocolate tart. It is best to use a round springform pan with a lifting base, with a diameter of approx. 30 cm. Grease the base with some vegan margarine.

For the shortcrust pastry you will need:

• 200 grams of flour
• 25 grams of baking cocoa
• a pinch of baking powder
• 4 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• 1 pinch of salt
• 125 grams of vegan margarine.

1. For the dough, mix the flour with cocoa and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Then add the remaining ingredients and process everything with a mixer with a dough hook briefly on the lowest level, then on the highest level to form a smooth dough.
2. Then line the bottom of the mold with the dough and press down an edge. Place the baking tin in the middle of the rack in the oven.
3. After baking for 20 minutes, remove the base from the oven and let it cool down on a wire rack.

For the chocolate filling of the tart you need

• 300 grams of vegan premium couverture
• 600 g silken tofu
• 5 tablespoons maple syrup
• 2 packets of vanilla sugar.

1. Also, add 2 packets of whipped cream. So that the cake is vegan, please pay attention to the labeling “vegan” and no gelatine on the cream stiffener.
2. Chop the couverture and melt it in a bain-marie over low heat. Now puree the silken tofu in a mixing bowl until smooth.
3. The typical soy flavor of silken tofu is only very slight, which is why it is particularly suitable for cakes or other desserts.
4. Then stir in the maple syrup, vanilla sugar, and whipped cream.
5. Now you have to mix in the liquid couverture and spread the whole mass on the shortcrust pastry base. Everything is then put in the fridge for at least two hours until you realize that the mass has solidified.
6. If you want the whole thing to be a little juicier, you can add fruit. We recommend dates, cherries, or raspberries.
7. Roughly chop the fruit and finely puree it in a mixing bowl. With the dates, you should add some water, then press the amount through a fine sieve.
8. The fruit cream is spread on the shortcrust pastry base before the chocolate filling comes on top. Then in the fridge.
