We are on a cookie butter roll here in TWD-land. First two cookies, now Cookies-and-Cream Tartlets. These tartlets are an assemblage of components, which I like, because they can be done over time if I just don’t have the time. We’ve made Dorie’s Sweet Tart Dough for so many things now, and here it’s baked in mini tart pans. There’s a layer of cookie butter on the bottom of each fully-baked shell and then a luxurious salted dark chocolate ganache covering that. The recipe has chunks of broken-up speculoos cookies mixed into the ganache, but I chose to hide them underneath in the cookie butter because I wanted a smooth and shiny top layer. I did dust some crumbs over the top for a hint at what’s inside. What’s inside is pretty fabulous.

For the recipe, see Baking Chez Moi by Dorie Greenspan. Don’t forget to check out the rest of the TWD Blogroll!

Just beautiful…as usual! I like your smooth ganache and your simple tartlet pans. I would rather those that the ruffled edge ones I have. I will have to look for those 🙂

- thanks! i use tart rings…they are bottomless, so a bit more fiddly, but i like that straight edge look. i got them from a shop in nyc called jb prince, but i think sur la table sells them also.

They look adorable! I may have to borrow your idea for creating the smooth ganache top.

I was coming here to ask what tart pan you were using but I see someone has beaten me to the punch, I’ll have to pick some up and play!
