Ingredients

Biscuit base

  • 1 packet butternut snap biscuits

  • 15g desiccated coconut

  • 100g unsalted butter, melted

Topping

  • 300ml whipping cream

  • 30g castor sugar

  • ½ tsp vanilla bean paste

  • 1 block of milk chocolate for chocolate shavings

  • 2 punnets of raspberries

Method

  1. 1. To make the base, crush the biscuits and combine with the coconut and melted butter, press into the base of 12-centimetre x five-centimetre tart rings or eight egg rings that have been placed on a lined tray. 

    2. Place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes for the base to set. Remove the tart cases. You can keep the bases in an airtight container in the fridge. These can be made up to four days in advance. 

    3. To make the topping, place the cream, sugar and vanilla in a bowl and whisk until it is whipped.

    4. Create some chocolate shavings by running a sharp knife over the back of a chocolate block. The chocolate shavings can be made in advance and stored in an airtight container at room temperature or if it is too hot, store them in the fridge. 

    5. Divide the cream evenly between the 12 tarts, spoon a generous dollop on each tart. Place scattered raspberries on the top of each tart and top with chocolate shavings. You can place the topping on the tarts up to two hours before serving.
