I have this strange habit of wanting to eat delicious things on a Friday night. In my early 20s, Friday nights were a blur of vodka, passion fruit and maybe a bit of popcorn for dinner. As I get older and try to prioritise my health and rest, Friday nights are more roasts with gravy than raving.
This chocolate #Banting tart was borne of the desire to eat something chocolaty and decadent on a Friday evening, but keeping things carb-free.
300ml cream
2 heaped tbsp cocoa powder (I use Woolworths cocoa powder because it only has 10g carbs per 100g)
3 tbsp Xylitol
3 eggs yolks
1 whole egg
1/2 a cup coconut
1/2 cup ground almonds
Stick of butter
Combine butter, almonds and coconut in a blender until it resembles breadcrumbs. Press into a pie dish. Refrigerate while your prepare the filling.
Blend all the wet ingredients until everything is combined. Pour into the pie dish.
Bake at 180 C until the tart is firm with a slight wobble.
