For The Base

Oreos – I use the original Oreo cookies. The icing in between the cookies adds a creaminess to the biscuit base.
Butter – melted.

For The Filling

Dark chocolate – melts or a block. Choose a good quality dark chocolate for best results. Dark semi-sweet chocolate perfectly compliments the fresh and juicy raspberries in this luscious chocolate ganache tart.
Cream – use a full-fat heavy or thickened cream (not light!)
Fresh raspberries – to decorate.

Equipment Required

23cm tart tin – preferably with a removable base.
Food processor or Thermomix – to crush the Oreo’s.
Microwave, Thermomix or stove top – to heat the cream.
Oven – only 7 minutes bake time!

If you prefer, you can make this as little individual raspberry chocolate ganache tarts (if you have individual tart tins on hand!)

Step By Step Instructions

This tart is made in two very easy steps, then chilled. Serve straight from the fridge after decorating with fresh raspberries!

Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method.

Step 1 – Prepare The Biscuit Base

Preheat the oven to 170 degrees celsius (fan forced).

Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs remain.

Pour the melted butter over and mix to combine.

Press the crumb mixture into the base and sides of a 23cm tart tin with a removable base.

Bake for 7 minutes.

TIP: If your crumb base has shrunk down the sides, use the back of a large spoon to gently push the mixture back up while it’s still warm.

Step 2 – Make The Ganache

Heat the cream in the microwave for 1-2 minutes (stirring every 30 seconds), or in a saucepan, until hot but not boiling.

Place the chocolate melts or block of chocolate pieces into a bowl, and pour the hot cream over the top of it.

Allow the cream and chocolate to sit for 5 minutes before stirring with a rubber spatula until smooth and combined.

Carefully pour the ganache into the baked Oreo base.

Place the tart tin into the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours (overnight is best).

When ready to serve, decorate with fresh raspberries.

Expert Tips

By using a good quality dark chocolate with fresh raspberries, you’ll have a super rich and decadent tart that is also not overly sweet!

Type of cream – this raspberry chocolate tart requires thickened cream (as it’s referred to in Australia) or heavy cream (as it’s known in the US).
Storing – the tart will last up to 1 week in an airtight container in the fridge, or wrap well and store for up to 3 months in the freezer. Thaw in the fridge overnight and then decorate with fresh raspberries before serving.
Refrigerating the tart – because it’s made with cream, this chocolate ganache tart needs to be refrigerated until you’re ready to serve it.
Serving size – this is a VERY rich tart, so you’ll only need very small serves.
