For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Kim of Scrumptious Photography picked Chocolate Cream Tart, pages 352 and 353 of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.
I woke up this morning...contacts completely stuck to my eyes, TV playing some infomercial about a snuggie blanket that can also shape your abs with absolutely no exercise (or money down!), and with the thought, Oh darn [insert a more descriptive word here]! I fell asleep last night before making the Tuesday with Dorie Chocolate Cream Tart!
I raced home from work, used too much math to figure out 1/4 of the recipe, and felt like I should be using my easy bake oven with the tablespoons of ingredients! :)
I love the chocolate cream! So much so that I decided to skip the whipped cream and just make it a chocolate delight!
Whew! 10:31 pm Pacific Daylight Time! Just in time!
Be sure to check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers!

Seriously, those are adorable. And adorable food always tastes better. Nice work!
Haha great job getting it done under pressure. I was a bit last minute this week too! Your tarts look phenomenal!
That's a hlarious line about the snuggly blanket that builds abs of steel. I wonder if it cleans out the colon at the same time?
Oh, how I wish I worked at your library so that I could sample one of these.
that looks like the perfect chocolate bite. no whipped needed!
These are adorable and from what I've heard from others who made this tart, your version would be all one would need to satisfy the chocoholic in them! I wish I could take a recipe and quarter it. My brain would crack if I tried! LOL
Those are by far the cutest things I have ever seen!!! Where o where are the little pans from?
What adorable little tarts! It inspires me to use my tarlet shells.
Talk about dedication! These are adorable.

I've only slept with my contacts in all night once. That was enough. =) Your minis are adorable! I did something similar waaay back when we made the lemon cream tart.

Could these be any cuter? I love tiny food, because it means you get to eat more! Yum!
