Chocolate Tarts with Coconut Shells! (Gluten free, dairy free)

DIsclaimer: This recipe is not necessarily healthy! So before people start telling me how bad they are, they are just meant to be a pretty lovely delight and can be used for treats or for mini desserts when entertaining!

However it is relatively low in calories. And delicious.

Makes: 21

Ingredients:
- 2 cups dessicated coconut
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup sugar (could use a replacement, I didn't this time as I'd run out)
- approx 120g dark cooking chocolate
- approx 90mL light coconut cream

Method:
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius
- Spray mini-muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray or butter them
- In a large bowl, mix the coconut, egg whites and sugar
- The consistency should be fluffy and slightly sticky
- Press the mixture into the tins evenly, including the bottom of the tin and both sides
- The mixture should be around 3mm thick on each side
- Bake for 12 - 15 minutes (until golden all over with crispy edges)
- Cool completely in tins before removing from tins

- Whilst shells are cooling, prepare chocolate ganache to fill!
- Melt chocolate and coconut cream together on low heat, continuously stirring until all melted
- Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes (this is important as it thickens)
- Pour ganache into cooled coconut shells
- Let sit on bench for an hour, or if you prefer a firmer consistency of the ganache (I do), let sit in the fridge for an hour

Serve however you like - I placed a raspberry on each and grated dark chocolate on top
