Decadent Raspberry Brownie Tassies
Ingredients
  • 1
    recipe Chocolate Pastry
  • 1
    ounce unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 2
    tablespoons butter
  • 1/3
    cup sugar
  • 1/4
    cup seedless red raspberry jam
  • 1
    egg, beaten
  • 1/3
    cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4
    teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8
    teaspoon salt
  • 1
    recipe Chocolate Ganache
  • 24
    fresh red raspberries
  • 1
    ounce white baking chocolate square (with cocoa butter), chopped
  • 1/4
    teaspoon shortening
Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the Chocolate Pastry to 1/8-inch thickness. Using a 2-3/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut into 24 circles. Fit circles into 1-3/4-inch muffin cups, pressing to bottoms and up sides. Bake for 5 minutes.

2. Meanwhile for the filling, in a heavy small saucepan, combine unsweetened chocolate and butter; heat and stir over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in sugar, jam, and egg just until combined. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt. Spoon a scant 1 tablespoon of the filling into each pastry-lined muffin cup.

3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until filling is set. Cool in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups; cool completely.

4. Evenly spread Chocolate Ganache over filling. Top each tassie with a fresh raspberry.

5. In a small saucepan, combine white chocolate and shortening; heat and stir over low heat until melted. Drizzle over tarts. Let stand until white chocolate is set. Makes 24 tassies.
