What’s better than a homemade chocolate tart? One infused with your favorite coffee. This is the ultimate, decadent chocolate dessert.

What you need:

For the crust:
½ cup vegan butter
⅓ cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup finely chopped walnuts
1½ cups flour

For the filling:
1 cup chopped bittersweet chocolate
1¼ cups coffee
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup slivered almonds (optional)

What you do:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, cream butter and sugar with whisk until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and walnuts and mix. Add in flour ⅓ cup at a time and mix until dough sticks together and is slightly moist.
  2. Into a tart pan, press dough with your fingertips. Bake until edges are just barely starting to brown, about 20 minutes. Allow crust to cool completely before filling.
  3. For the filling, in a small pot, melt chocolate until it softens. In another small pot, bring coffee to a boil. Pour coffee over softened chocolate and stir mixture until smooth. Add cornstarch, vanilla, and salt to mixture. Pour filling into cooled crust. Place tart in refrigerator and chill 6 hours. Decorate top of tart with slivered almonds along edge of crust as desired, then slice and serve.
