CHOCOLATE PLUM TARTE

 This Tarte is perfect for fall: we are making a crunchy dough with ground nuts, creamy chocolate whipped ganache, and top our Tarte with plums. I also created a rose pattern to make it even prettier! If you haven't make whipped ganache before, I will explain it to you before we jump to the recipe.

Ganache is a cream based on chocolate and cream. This makes it melt in your mouth and -gosh- it's so incredibly creamy! For a whipped ganache you just beat your ganache up until it's light and fluffy so you can easily fill it into your Tarte dough.

So let's get started!



 RECIPE:

For the Tarte dough: 

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups flour ( 400g)
  • 1 cup sugar (200g)
  • 1 cup butter (225g)
  • 1 cup ground almonds (100g)
  • Vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  1. Start by mixing butter and sugar until combined
  2. Add the eggs, and flour, ground almonds, and vanilla
  3. Knead until you get a well-combined dough
  4. Put your dough into the fridge for 30 minutes
For the whipped ganache filling:

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup/ 6 ounces dark chocolate (150g)
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream (119g)
  1. Chop the chocolate into small pieces and put them into a bowl.
  2. Heat your whipping cream until you can see little bubbles and pour it over your chocolate chunks
  3. Stir until the chocolate is melted completely.
  4. Put your ganache into the fridge and stir every 10 minutes until you reach a thickened consistency (like Nutella) 
  5. With a hand mixer, mix start beating your ganache until it gets lighter in color and fluffier. 
Final steps:

Ingredients:
  • 5-6 plums
  1. Fill your Tarte dough with the ganache
  2. Wash the plums, then remove the center and cut them into very thin slices. Half them, so you get a half circle
  3. Start by putting some plums in the middle of your Tarte, then put the rest very close to each other until the whole Tarte is decorated with plums. The pattern should look like a rose (you can see it in the picture below).

Do you want to learn how I create a short-form food video from start to finish?

I've been sharing my baking creations for more than five years on my Instagram Account @tamarasbakings . It all started with pictures but slowly, I transitioned into short-form videos, aka Reels. In the beginning, I made them very detailed and experimented with different settings in my home, various backdrops and camera angles, editing techniques, etc. but over time I created an effective way to film my Reels and now I am sharing multiple ones per month. Since I have the best followers in the world, I often get comments on how nice my editing is or how beautifully filmed my videos are. And I do pay close attention to the little details, like props and decor items, camera angles, and creating interest, so people genuinely want to watch my videos.

In case you've never heard of Skillshare before, it is an onlin...

Cinnamon Rolls - perfect for fall baking

When I think of fall baking and the cozy season, I immediately think about cinnamon rolls, as well. There's just something so comforting about a soft, fluffy, and sweet cinnamon roll together with a cup of your fav fall drink. So today, I am sharing my favorite cinnamon recipe with you. I've always been using this exact recipe and I can confidently say that my whole family and friends love it! The yeast dough - things to keep in mind The most important thing about a good and fluffy cinnamon roll is, of course, the yeast dough- but how can you ensure it gets fluffy and perfect? First of all, I always use fresh yeast. In my opinion, this gives you the best results. In order to make sure the yeast can do its job properly, the temperature of the milk (and butter mixture) is key! If your mixture is too hot or too cold, you won't get a good yeast dough, it won't rise and your cinnamon rolls will be dry and flat. I always think of a hot bathtub when I heat my milk. Imagine you...
