Chocolate Dream Tart

 

1/3

cup butter or margarine, softened

1

cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

1

egg

1

tablespoon butter or margarine

1

can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)

1

bag (12 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)

1/2

cup chopped walnuts

1

teaspoon vanilla

Unsweetened whipped cream, if desired

• 1 Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, cut 1/3 cup butter into flour, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture is crumbly. Stir in egg until dough forms. Press firmly and evenly against bottom and side of ungreased 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown; cool on cooling rack.
• 2 Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. In 2-quart saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter over low heat. Stir in milk and chocolate chips. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted. Stir in walnuts and vanilla. Spread in baked crust.
• 3 Bake about 25 minutes or until edge is set but chocolate appears moist in center. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack, about 1 hour. To serve, top each slice with whipped cream.
