Bittersweet Chocolate Tart



Blaming the long nights of January for my chocolate cravings. This tart came out so rich that cured them all - such a treat!

Makes 8 servings. Preheat oven at 350 F.

For the base:
In a bowl, mix together:
- 1 & 1/4 cup dark rye flour
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tbsp agave syrup
 
Add 3-4 tbsp ice cold water and mix into a dough.
Shape dough into a ball and place in the middle of a tart pan.
Stretch the dough to match the tart pan shape by pressing it firmly with your fingers.
Set aside.

For the filling:
 
In a large bowl, add in this order and mix well:
- 2 whole eggs
- 1/2 cup agave syrup
- pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt (Balkan style)
- 8 oz unsweetened chocolate chips  (melted).

 
Pour the chocolate mixture into the tart shell and bake for ~ 35-40 minute until set. Let cool before cutting.
