Recipe information
Yield
8 mini tarts
Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2
Put the chocolate and milk into a heat-safe bowl and place over a pot of gently simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. This can also be done in the microwave in a glass or plastic bowl by heating the chocolate on Low for a minute or two, stirring it until melted and smooth. Next, stir in the pecans until well mixed. Put a heaping tablespoon of the mixture into 8 portions of the muffin tin. Using the handle of a wooden spoon, lightly press the mixture into the sides and bottom of each portion, creating a cup shape. Chill for 15 minutes.
Step 3
Once chilled, use a thin butter knife or icing spatula to release the chocolate cups from the tin. Place them on a serving platter. Fill each cup with a tablespoon of the jam, and top with a spritz of whipped cream.
