Ingredients
- 200g bourbon biscuits
- 85g crunchy amaretti biscuit
- 140g salted butter, melted
- 75g golden caster sugar
- a few cubes best-quality Turkish delight, diced, to decorate
For the filling
- 400ml double cream
- 200g dark chocolate, broken into chunks
- 200g milk chocolate, broken into chunks
- 140g raspberry, plus a handful more to decorate
For the rose creme fraiche
- 400g crème fraîche
- 2 tbsp icing sugar
- 2 tsp rosewater
Method
- STEP 1
Double-bag the bourbon biscuits in food bags and bash to crumbs with a rolling pin. Repeat with the amaretti. Stir into the melted butter with the sugar. Lightly grease and line the base and sides of an 18 x 28cm rectangular loose-bottomed tart tin with baking parchment (or use a 22-23cm round tin). Press the biscuit mixture into the base and chill for 30 mins while you make the filling.
- STEP 2
For the filling, put the cream and all the chocolate chunks in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Gently melt, stirring very occasionally, until smooth and silky. Dot the raspberries over the base, pour over the chocolate and chill for at least 5 hrs until firm, or overnight.
- STEP 3
To serve, remove from the fridge and, after 15 mins, lift from the tin, peel off the parchment and place on a serving plate. Scatter with a few more raspberries and the diced Turkish delight. Spoon the crème fraîche into a serving bowl, sift in the icing sugar and stir together with the rose water. Cut the tart into squares and serve with the rose crème fraîche.
