I love the combo of blueberry and chocolate! The addition of milled Chia Bia chia seeds infused with dried blueberry powder gives this tart an extra hit of subtle yet distinctive blueberry flavour.
The texture of this tart is truly incredible. The ganache is made with a mixture of evaporated and condensed milk along with dark chocolate which makes for a super rich, creamy, melt in the mouth consistency. I find this combination is much more fool proof in terms of avoiding the potential splitting of the mixture or seizing of the chocolate.
A baked base, a simple ganache, fresh blueberries, and you have yourself a pretty dessert, that tastes epic and is sure to be a crowd pleaser. Thinking ahead to Christmas already!
