Method
- To make the pastry mix the flour, cocoa powder, sugar and salt together in a bowl, rub in the fat until you have a bread-crumb like texture.
- Add cold water 1-2 tbsps at a time and incorporate. Keep adding water and incorporating it until you have a roll-able dough.
- Carefully knead the dough a few times on a clean work surface, then wrap in cling film and refrigerate for about 30 minutes or so.
- Once chilled, roll the dough to about 1/8 inch thick and line four tartlet pans with the pastry, chill again whilst you make the filling and preheat the oven to 200c/400f.
- To make the filling blend the tofu in a food processor until smooth, adding a little of the almond milk if needed to help blend.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and whisk in the almond milk, agave, rapeseed oil, almond extract, ground almonds and cocoa powder until fully combined.
- Take the tart shells outta the fridge and distribute the filling evenly between the tart shells.
- Poke about 7 or more raspberries carefully into the filling on each tart, and place the tarts on a baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes. Cool slightly in the tins, then carefully remove. Enjoy slightly warm.
