Chocolate-Macadamia Tart

  • ACTIVE: 10 MIN
  • TOTAL TIME: 1 HR Plus cooling
  • SERVINGS: makes one 9-inch tart

The maple syrup in this tart lightens the chocolate flavor and creates an ethereal custard to hold buttery macadamias.

Our Pairing Suggestion

Banyuls is a vin doux naturel, a dessert wine that gets its sweetness from unfermented grape sugar. Its berry richness is perfect with this luscious tart.
