* You'll need a 9-inch metal tart pan with a removable bottom for this recipe. If you don't have pie weights, dried beans or raw rice make great substitutes. The tart shell can be baked up to two days ahead; let it cool, wrap it tightly, and store it at room temperature. This recipe was developed using Endangered Species Smooth + Creamy Milk Chocolate, which has a high cacao content. If you'll be using another brand, consider adding the optional tablespoon of cocoa powder for a darker milk chocolate flavor. Avoid chocolate chips, which sometimes contain additives to hinder melting. If desired, serve with unsweetened whipped cream or fruit. note: You'll need a 9-inch metal tart pan with a removable bottom for this recipe.
