Ingredients:
2 tablespoon(s) butter |
1 large egg, slightly beaten |
1 tablespoon(s) raspberry liquor or raspberry syrup |
1 recipe chocolate pastry (see below) |
6 container(s) semisweet/bittersweet chocolate, chopped 1 cup |
1/3 cup(s) sugar |
2 teaspoon(s) vanilla |
Directions:
1. Prepare Chocolate Pastry. Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Divide pastry in 24 balls. Evenly press each ball on bottom and sides of 24 ungreased 1-3/4-inch muffin cups, using floured fingers if necessary; set aside.
2. For filling, in small saucepan heat and stir chocolate and butter over medium-low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in egg, sugar, liqueur, and vanilla. Spoon 1 scant tablespoon filling in each pastry shell.
3. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until pastry is firm and filling is puffed. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Run sharp thin-blade knife around tassie edges; carefully remove from pans. Cool on wire rack. Pipe or dollop on a small amount of Chocolate Buttercream.
4. To store, refrigerate tassies in single layer in airtight container up to 3 days. Makes 24 tarts.
5. Chocolate Pastry: In food processor combine 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder, and dash of salt; pulse to combine. Add 1/2 cup cold butter, cut up. Cover; process until crumbly. In small bowl whisk together 1 egg yolk and 2 tablespoons cold water. Add to processor; pulse until a dough ball forms (add water if dry). If needed, cover and refrigerate until easy to handle.
6. Chocolate Buttercream: In a medium mixing bowl beat 1/4 cup softened butter on medium-high for 30 seconds. Gradually beat in 1 cup powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Beat in 2 tablespoons milk. Gradually beat in 1 cup powdered sugar until piping consistency.
