Instructions
TARTLET SHELLS:If you’re making the tartlet shells from scratch, you’ll need to do those first - even up to 3 days ahead. They must be cool when you add the chocolate mix.
FOR THE GANACHE: Chop the chocolate very finely and set aside
In a small or medium saucepan, combine the cream, sugar and coffee. Cook over low-medium heat, stirring until the sugar and coffee have dissolved. As soon as you see the first tiny bubbles, remove it from the heat.
Add the chocolate into the cream mixture and give the pan a swirl to settle the chocolate underneath as much as possible. Let it sit for 1 minute to soften, then stir to a smooth, glossy ganache.
Set aside for about 10 minutes or until it’s around room temperature.
Pour the chocolate mixture evenly between 12 tartlet shells (it’s about 1 tablespoon per shell). Chill 1 hour before topping.
FOR THE CREAM MIXTURE:In a medium bowl, beat the cream with an electric mixer to stiff peaks. be careful not to overbeat or it will become grainy.
In a separate bowl, beat the mascarpone, sugar and vanilla, until just combined (don’t overbeat).
Fold ⅓ of the whipped cream into the mascarpone gently with a spatula so as not to knock out the air and repeat two more times until all incorporated.
Transfer the cream mixture to a piping bag and pipe a dollop on top of the set ganache in each of the tartlet shells.
As long as the ganache is set when you top them, these tiramisu tartlets can be served immediately or chilled overnight before serving.
Dust with cocoa right before serving and top with a coffee bean.
