For crust:

For filling:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces Ghirardelli 60% cacao bittersweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Stir together crushed chocolate graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture evenly onto bottom and sides of each tart pan. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the crust is firm. Cool on a baking rack for 15 to 20 minutes
