  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in 1/4 cup melted coconut oil and 3 tablespoons maple syrup until a cohesive dough forms.
  • Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the tart pan. Prick the bottom several times with a fork.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or in 30-second intervals in the microwave until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Place the silken tofu, 1/3 cup maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.
  • Add the melted chocolate to the blender and process until the mixture is fully emulsified and aerated.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture into the cooled tart shell and smooth the surface with an offset spatula.
  • Refrigerate the tart for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
  • Slice with a hot knife for clean edges and serve chilled.
