Equipment

  • 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom
  • Food processor (or zip-top bag and rolling pin)
  • Microwave-safe mixing bowl
  • Flat-bottomed drinking glass

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 2 cups gluten free shortbread cookie crumbs about 8 oz cookies
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • Pinch of salt

Ganache

  • 8 oz dark chocolate chips 70% cacao or higher
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Topping

  • 1 pint fresh raspberries
  • Flaky sea salt optional

Instructions
 

  • Pulse cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. You should have about 2 cups.
  • Stir melted butter and salt into the crumbs until they look like wet sand.
  • Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch tart pan, building up the sides first. Chill for 15 minutes.
  • Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat heavy cream for 60 to 90 seconds, until hot but not boiling.
  • Pour hot cream over the chocolate and let sit 2 minutes. Whisk gently until smooth and glossy.
  • Pour the ganache into the chilled crust and smooth the surface.
  • Rest for 10 minutes, until tacky. Press raspberries in stem-side down in rows or a pattern.
  • Chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, before slicing.
  • Release from the pan, finish with flaky sea salt if using, and slice with a warm knife wiped between cuts.

Notes

Place raspberries while ganache is tacky, not fully set. This is the key to them staying in place without sinking.
Chill the crust before adding ganache so the base stays crisp.
Use a warm, dry knife for clean slices.
Best made 4 to 24 hours ahead. Add raspberries within 24 hours of serving.
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
