If you love dark chocolate like I do, this creamy Chocolate Gluten Free Tart with a Caramel Drizzle is going to be fun to make.

Thick dark chocolate custard in a chocolate almond crust is a chocolate lovers’ dream dessert.

I am a die-hard chocoholic.

It can’t help! Lead me to the chocolate!! The good news is that I am picky about my chocolate. Who could ever say no to a high-quality dark chocolate? There are so many types of chocolate, but I will always lean towards the darker chocolates.

That is why I am so excited to share this chocolate tart recipe with you.

(There are several AMAZING tart recipes on my blog, so dive right in! Raw Strawberry Tarts and Gluten Free Maple Ginger Butternut Squash with White Chocolate are two of my favorites.)

This gluten-free tart is filled with smooth dark chocolate, with a chocolate coconut crust.

(This is NOT a sponsored post, but I definitely will say I am in love with these Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Melting Wafers. They melt so easily and taste great in so many chocolate dishes.)

It is hard to eat just one slice of this decadent tart…especially for my teens. This was quite the “welcome back” treat for them when they got home from school LOL.

If you have ever wondered how to make a gluten-free tart, this recipe is a great “starter” recipe so you can see the steps and how easy tart desserts can be.

At least they left a slice for Mr. Fearless Dining.

Can you freeze a chocolate tart?

The answer is yes, you can. It may be easier to freeze this tart whole, then cut it after it has been thawed out.

Gluten-Free Tart Crust Variations

You will love how easy this gluten-free tart crust is to make. If you think a chocolate crust is too much chocolate, here are a few other ideas:

Make a graham cracker crust like in these Gluten Free Brownie S’mores Tarts recipe.
You can make more of a pie crust like in this Asparagus and Goat Cheese Tart recipe.
Try an almond coconut crust like in this Caramel Apple Tart recipe.

Ingredients

1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup gluten free flour blend (*Note, my flour blend has xanthan gum included. If yours doesn't, add 1 teaspoon.)
3/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
6 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 cup Ghirardelli cocoa
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 large egg
1 cup Ghirardelli dark chocolate melting wafers

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a small pot, heat cream and melting chocolate on low heat.
Stir occasionally.
When the chocolate is melted, remove from heat.
Spray coconut oil in a tart pan to prevent sticking.
In a large bowl, add almond flour, gluten free flour, sugar, cocoa, and coconut.
Whisk to blend.
Stir in melted butter and mix.
Pour crust into tart pan and press along the edges to line pan with crust.
Bake crust for 10 minutes and then remove from the oven.
In a small bowl, whisk egg.
Add a tiny bit of hot chocolate mixture while whisking to temper the egg into the mixture.
Add the rest of the egg and whisk.
Add this back into the melted chocolate.
Pour chocolate cream mixture on top of the crust and bake an additional 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Drizzle caramel sauce on top. (I use Trader Joe's)
