Big chocolate fan? Us too! That's why we created a tart with an easy chocolate crust and rich chocolate ganache filling. It's the most decadent slice that you won't be able to stop eating. The sour cream gives it an extra smooth and slightly tangy filling. Top it with a little fresh whipped cream to balance it all out, but please don't forget the flaky sea salt! For an extra smooth ganache we highly recommend using a good quality bar of chocolate over chocolate chips because the chips are made to not melt easily and may leave some chunks of chocolate unmelted in your ganache!

Ingredients
For the crust
- 1 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup
granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup
unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp.
kosher salt
- 1/2 cup
(1 stick) butter, melted
For the filling
- 9 oz.

- 1/3 cup
heavy cream
- 1/4 cup
sour cream, room temperature
- 1/2 tsp.

Flaky sea salt, for garnish

Directions
- Step 1Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Add melted butter and mix until just combined. Press dough into a 10” tart pan with a removable bottom, being sure to go all the way up the sides. Dock bottom of crust with a fork.
- Step 2Bake crust until firm to the touch, but still shiny, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Step 3Place chocolate in a heat proof bowl. In a small pot over medium heat, heat heavy cream until simmering. Pour hot cream over chocolate and let sit 1 to 2 minutes. Add sour cream and salt and whisk until completely smooth.
- Step 4Pour ganache over cooled crust and smooth with an offset spatula. Top with flaky sea salt. Refrigerate until filling is set, at least 1 hour.
- Step 5Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
