Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons ice water
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Instructions

Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and pulse until pea-sized. Add egg yolk and ice water; pulse until dough holds together. Press into a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Prick bottom with fork. Freeze 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake crust for 15-18 minutes until golden. Cool completely.
Make the filling: Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. In a saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium heat until just simmering. Pour over chocolate; let stand 1 minute, then stir until smooth. Add butter, vanilla, and salt; stir until glossy.
Pour filling into cooled crust. Smooth top. Refrigerate at least 4 hours until set. Serve chilled.

Tips

For a decorative touch, top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
