HOW TO MAKE EASY CHOCOLATE TARTS

INGREDIENTS FOR CHOCOLATE TARTS WITH CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

1 chocolate cake mix (I use German)
egg
melted butter
instant chocolate pudding
half and half
frozen whipped topping
fresh raspberries
plastic bread bag or frosting bag
mini cupcake pan

STEP 1

Using the recipe below, make mini brownies tarts using a cake mix, egg, butter, and a mini muffin tin. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven. Let cool for just about one minute.

Using a water bottle lid, push down the middle of the tart to make a nice bowl. Repeat for all the tarts. Then let them cool completely.

STEP 2

Mix up easy chocolate mousse according to the recipe. Scoop the mousse into a bread bag or frosting bag. Snip the corner off and then fill each chocolate tart for baby shower tarts by swirling the mousse round and round until it looks pretty, like this:

STEP 3

Top with a fresh raspberry. If raspberries aren’t in season or you don’t have any, use a chocolate kiss or shaved chocolate.

BROWNIE CHOCOLATE TART RECIPE TIPS
