Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 20 pieces Oreo cookies
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
For the Filling:
  • 4.5 ounces high-quality dark chocolate chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup pomegranate juice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate arils for topping

Equipment

  • 9-inch tart pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • Spatula

Method
 

How to Prepare:
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Crust. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs. Combine cookie crumbs with melted butter and mix until well-coated. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool completely.
  2. Step 2: Make the Filling. Melt the chopped dark chocolate with 2 tablespoons of heavy cream in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl. Stir until smooth and let cool slightly. In another bowl, whisk together the remaining heavy cream, beaten egg, vanilla extract, pomegranate juice, and sugar. Fold in the melted chocolate until fully combined.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the Tart. Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled Oreo crust and spread evenly. Tap the tart pan to remove air bubbles. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the filling is set but slightly jiggles in the center. Cool to room temperature.
  4. Step 4: Chill and Serve. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. Before serving, top with fresh pomegranate arils.

Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
  • Ensure the crust is completely cool before adding the filling.
  • Refrigerate overnight for enhanced flavor.
