Gluten-Free Chocolate Tart Shells:
At any rate, the holidays are the perfect time to make desserts to bring to family gatherings. In any event, you may want to create something new for your family this year. Of course, the sky is the limit on filling. Oh, the choices we can make using this crust. All in all, it can be substituted for any tart that pairs with chocolate. Needless to say, what is better than chocolate?
Notes:
As a matter of fact, I often make an array of tarts for Thanksgiving. Not to mention, that everyone can get a small taste of each dessert. In conclusion, this recipe makes a total of four 4-inch tart shells. Perfect for empty nesters, small families, or those wanting to make a variety of desserts. Furthermore, these tart shells freeze nicely if left inside the tart tin. When I make this for my husband and me two tarts will end up getting frozen. Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener can also be made if you can’t find it.
