Instructions

For The Crust

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a food processor, grind the chocolate cookies until they become crumbs. Transfer the cookie crumbs to a mixing bowl and stir in the sugar, salt, and melted butter until well incorporated. This should be consistency of wet sand.
  • Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the tart pan. Bake until the crust is set - about 10 minutes. Let this cool completely.

For The Filling

  • In a small mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs and vanilla together until well combined. Set aside.
  • Add the chocolate chips to a separate heatproof mixing bowl.
  • Over medium heat, bring the cream to just a simmer in a small saucepan. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let the mixture sit for about 1 minute. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  • Slowly whisk the egg and vanilla mixture into the warm chocolate mixture, stirring constantly until fully incorporated and smooth.(Tip: make sure the chocolate mixture is warm, not hot, to prevent the eggs from scrambling.)
  • Pour the filling into the cooled tart crust.
  • Bake until the edges of the tart begin to puff slightly and the center is still a little jiggly, about 18–20 minutes. Let the tart cool completely, or until the filling is fully set.

For The Glaze

  • Add the chocolate chips to a small heatproof mixing bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the cream until it barely begins to simmer and pour it over the chocolate. Let sit for about 1 minute and whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the glaze over the tart, smoothing it out with an offset spatula if needed. Allow to set, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and chocolate shavings.
  • Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

How To Make Chocolate Shavings: Refrigerate or freeze your chocolate bar of choice until it is very cold. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the chocolate bar in long strips.
